this song is quite hard to decipher, but to me it seems like it has to do with somebody (we'll call them 'a') who has known a person(we'll call them 'b') very close to them for a long time, but person b is becoming somebody totally different than who A originally remembered them as, to the point where theyre becoming condescending and sour towards A. A is finally realizing that knowing b is more painful to him then to not know b at all.
the first verse kind of speaks for itself meaning the things that b is saying is insulting and painful for A (serrated words can cut so deep etc etc etc). 'What doesnt kill me makes me numb' makes me think of all the things b is saying to A will eventually build a thick skin for him, and the condescedning remarks (as well as b himself) eventually wont matter to him anymore.
The chorus is a little shakier, but still has a bit of the same meaning "please don't forgive me, im never waking up" seems to describe that A might have done something wrong to recieve this treatment in b's eyes, but A doesnt want b to forgive him because that would make it harder for A to let go of this relationship. "this wont mean anything to you" could mean either that A is starting to become just another face in the crowd for b, or that the condescending notations that b is giving A wont change b at all because they just seem like harmless barbs to him. something of that sort. "no use resisting, you'll never get enough" simply means that b isn't going to stop anytime soon with their mannerisms towards A, so there's no use trying to keep him from doing so.
"the hole you left i filled with stones you threw" kind of means the same thing as above, with the hole representing all of the good memories that A had with b, and now in place of that are all the degrading comments b has used towards A.
"Id rather be here than there with you" is when A has decided that it is in fact easier for him to be out of this connection with b than in it.
"i need you to say i dont mean anything to you" could mean that A wants to know whether or not he's worth anything to b, because if he isn't he'll surely get out of b's life. "I need you to break" can mean that A wants b to just come right out and say it, instead of playing these mind games with him.
the last verse is by the time A is totally out of b's life, he still feels so much hatred towards b because of all the things b put him through, and now he knows its okay to release his anger towards b because he doesn't mean anything to b.
holy damn, rereading that comment its kind of complicated. still seems to make sense though....
