eh.. im not sure, but this is my guess from first glance:

"Waiting for the one I love I've been forgetting you "

she just broke up with somebody, because he turned out to be "the wrong one".

"If anyone should ask me I'll tell them I don't know I've been leaving all my clues like my footprints in the snow"

she can't believe she's so torn up about it and wants comfort, but she's not going to openly admit it... she just wants somebody to pick up on her subtle cues.

"Watching all the quiet faces I can understand Why we need to be rescued by better things than man"

reigious help? "better than man"? you know?

idk. its my weak guess. but i LOVE this song. im prolly relating it to that because thats how i feel. haha. but i guess music is supposed to be interpreted into something you can hold on to. make something so personal to them personal to YOU. :]

While I think the line "rescued by better things than man" is a, for lack of a better word, nod at the supernatural, I think it can also mean that the speaker does not need a man - the speaker can find fulfillment without a relationship.
