I just heard this song thanks to a suggestion from Itunes. But I love it. I've been in this type of situation. I think he is basically talking to her throughout the song and apologizing in the first verse about what happened in their relationship, or maybe they are talking and he is apologizing for bring up the past again. The rest of the song just sounds like he is sick of pretending he is fine and completely done with her, as he says he wants to tell her that he's fine without her, but he doesn't want to lie to her anymore. I think this song really boils down to just that knowledge that both of you are with other people, but wondering if it's cause you feel what you should do. Yet you can't just forget them completely, as he says " Between you and I, I still keep your pictures underneath my bed Where she gives herself to me. Where I give myself to you." it's almost as if he's saying this girl is giving her everything to him, but he still can't give himself to her because he is still attached to his ex. I know the feeling all to well, you want to move on, but you just kind of know that person will always have a piece of your heart, despite how much you don't want to admit it and how much you really do want to just let go completely.
