I really love this song. Its the best on the album. There are probably many ways this can be translated, but this is what I got because it feels like my situation put into a song.
Basically, these two people were really in love but as they got to know each other, they realized it wasn't what they thought, and they started to lie and decieve each other. But they really loved what they thought they had and won't let go, even though its "killing" them. He gave her everything but he knows it was all for nothing, now he's asking her to leave and he's going to end the relationship.
If you want to know more in-depth :
"All that you say is complimentary
Within these walls, where lies
are on display
If you hide the truth, then rest assured,
there's nothing left to say
there's nothing left to do"
---- This couple are lying to each other and they both know it but won't say anything or do anything because there's nothing to do or say.
"The difference between finding
what you love,
and loving what you've found
Is killing us right now
It will always be true, living as one,
beats dying as two
We both know this can't go on"
---- They both were in love at the beginning, but as they got to know each other more, they realized it was just an illusion, that they aren't meant to be or are really in love anymore. Its "killing" them, and he knows that if they stay together, they'll both end up heartbroken and hurt, but if he ends it and goes on his own, it'll be easier than going through the pain of staying with her.
"Crawl back in place
I promise not to chase
I guess this time
I loved what I could taste
What the years have lost, is
what I've gained
There's nothing left to give
after everything I gave"
---- He's asking her to leave, that he wants it to end. He realizes that what he loved was just a "taste" of something that wasn't real. He gave her everything, years of his life, his love, his faith, but he hasn't gained anything from it.
"Crawl back in place
I'm trying not to hate
I guess this time
I'll watch you fade away"
---- He's asking her to leave, that he doesn't want to and is trying not to hate her. He's just going to end this for the good and watch her "fade away".
