I think the first half of the song is pretty cut and dry. I think its about people in realtionships not wanting to become attached of open themselves up to getting hurt. But I also think it is about losing your individualism, about a person afraid of becoming a couple rather then two people together. I say that because of where it talks about, "Trying not to lose your own, boxing up everything, you�ve got
All you ever knew of home, you�re scared scared to see". I think form halfway down things get a little more where personal interprataions take place. The just knowing distance part is about people that want eachother but cant make it work, they love each other but something is always wrong. Their close at times, but when things get hard they seperate and run their own ways. "Kiss away the difference, I know you hate this one", I think it is about, one of them trying to make everything better by saying Im sorry or kissing you to show that their alright, even if you dont feel the same. "this is how the story ends", means that this is the end and the process restarts.
I think the last set of lines is the most powerful. "Violins make no sound", that is just odd, and I think thats what its meant to be. It just not what you'd expect. "I begin to feel the ground", I think this is saying how he isnt in the clouds any longer, when he/she is forced to facce life with out the other cause they didnt see everything falling about, it just wasnt expected. (I think that line and the one about the violins are linked). "Is this how the story ends, or have we just begun", I think this is about one of them wondering if the other will come back or are stuck to face new begins with alone or with another love.
