I can't actually get over how amazing this band is. My favourite song from the Ep's so far - bring on the next one please.
I think this song is about that one person you've let slip away, even after they've hung around you for ages, giving you so many chances but you've been too foolish to see it then. Ain't Hindsight a wonderful thing?
I think its very easy to assume that this song is about the guy making a mess of things. But you need to notice that the singer is talking to the guy. Im lead to believe that this man was in an abusive relationship where he would constantly ignore that fact that he is being mistreated.
"you know that you have seen this all before"
as if the same problems keep reoccuring
he was so brave and bold at the beggining but now he is ruined
his grace is wasted and he stands ALONE among the wreck
as though he was more loyal or passionate...

as if the same problems keep reoccuring
he was so brave and bold at the beggining but now he is ruined
his grace is wasted and he stands ALONE among the wreck
as though he was more loyal or passionate about the relationship
and yet, through all of his problems and being mistreated
He still turns to her and says its his fault, "I really fucked it up this time, didnt I my dear?"
which is him apologizing again for something that isnt his fault
hes no longer brave
It sounds too sarcastic by asking "didnt I?"
obviously everyone has their own opinions and no one is really right
just a take on the song to consider
True, but he seems to imply that the person he is talking to is a male ("... my man").

So, following your thought process, it could be that it's a homosexual relationship or that he's talking from the female's perspective.

But, personally, I think it's much more likely that he is talking to himself here. Having been in the situation that this song perfectly describes, I can say that I spoke of and to myself with great disgust and hate. All the things he says here, I said to myself.

Having been in the situation that this song perfectly describes, I can say that I spoke of and to myself with great disgust and hate. All the things he says here, I said to myself. The chorus, where he is speaking to his significant other, is almost exactly what I said to my own significant other at the time.
this may sound stupid but i think this song is a wife beater , the little lion man is the coward(little man ) that thinks hes tough (lion)beating the missus
hes offerin advice to the son in the second verse "whos seen it all before" ,, the dad beating the ma
and he tells him to listen to his mother or spend the days biting your own neck "being on your own"
even listen to the way he says my dear in the chorus it starts out sounding evil then ends up him saying it like hes regretful...
