See what I think the people who say it's about love is right. I'll trying she said as she walked away try not to lose you

she walked away and he was doing his best trying notto lose her but it still happened. two vibrant hearts could change is the hope he had that it could be different in the future. nothing tears the being more then deception, unmasked fear. his refferance the being tearing by deception is his heart shattering from her lying to him. unmasked fear would be reffering to the fear she had and has. the next line gives that away

I'll be here waiting, tested and secure.

Meaning though she's gone he waits for her secure that she's the one he wants to be with forever.

nothing hurts my world just affects the ones around me, when sin's deep in my blood you'll be the one to fall.

that would mean he doesn't let the pain of her being gone but he lets the people around him feel his loss. And when lies are deep within him she'll be the one to feel the pain she caused him. She'll be the one to fall.

I wish I could be the one, the one who won't care at all. but being the one on the stand, I know the way to go, no one's guiding me When time soaked with blood turns its back I know know it's hard to fall, confided in me was your heart. I know it's hurting you but it's killing me.

this whole part of the song is actually sung to the girl He wishes he could be her and not care at all. but being the one people know as the nice guy he knows he's doing the right thing and he's guided by his gut feeling. when he's been with her for so long and she turns her back he knows it's hard to let go but he has to because she isn't there anymore. He's sayin she trusted him with everything. But the way she treated him through it all and in the end he knows it's hurting her but killing him.

Nothing, will last in this life. our time is spent constructing now you're perfecting a world....Meant to sin. Constrict your hands around me squeeze till I cannot breathe, this air tastes dead inside me Contribute to our plague. break all your promises break down these steadfast walls restraints are useless here tasting salvations near.

Basically this is him saying through the effort of giving her the wanting to stay with him she stll wanted to change the world to how she wanted it. she got angry with him enough to kill him for him telling her she was wrong so she started revenging against him but breaking promises tearing down the walls they had built aroun each other. meaning he'd been with her from the start.

the referrance to tasting salvation would be reffering to "saving" basically she thinks he can save him by hurting him. but that's my concept of it. and the funny thing is that I'm not even xian but that song is held close to me because of the fact that something like that happened with me in the fairly recent past. And this happens to be the song I'm reminded of her by.

@VampyreKnight2 spot on man!! I truly don’t know the history of them back in that time but I feel like it’s about wanting someone you can’t have. Who ever wrote the lyrics was hurting. I would assume Matt
