I think I get it...

The fisrt verse is about how something bad is happening to him, causing him pain and the world is about to fall on top of him....he wants to die, and there is no way out...

The next verse is about how it shouldn't be happening, but it does, and its like the pain of dying, but without the relief of death...

The third verse is about doing whatever he can to stop the pain, changing the sorrow or watever into hate and the promises he made to make things right were thrown downn the drain because the he realised he could use the pain to make himself stronger(the nerves you sever....can serve you better)...

The fourth verse is about how quickly he was able to let go and realize how the pain was a lesson, he will never go down that path again, never cause himself to go through it again..

Ans the last bit is sort of self explanatory......Tearing myself from the things that make me hurt...

I could be totally wrong, but I feel like these lyrics sort of relate to the situation im going through at the moment...and thats the explanation I can give for myself...

Well, if you think I'm right or wrong, reply to me.
