To me this song is about fucking up in life and coming close to losing a significant other. Then realizing that he needs to change his ways in order to keep that significant other.
Remove my hands and feet
Watch me crawl
On my stubs
Throw me to the street
Watch me fall on
Down head first
The first verse (to me) means that he's desperate for help and doesn't care what others think of him.
It's not that simple
But I've needed this from the start
To guide my way
You will be ok (I think it's "to be ok")
It has made life simple
I have needed this from the start
To wake up
The second means that he has fallen so hard that he realizes his mistakes. It's like he learned something about himself.
If all else fails
If all turns to dust
Set sail
On a ship built from trust
If all else fails
When all starts to rust
Set sail
On a ship built for us
This to me, is him trying to gain that someone back.
It's time to retreat
I have sawed it down to the bone
The canyons are too deep
Yeah
I decided to run like a child
Then decided to run to rescue
It took too long
To wake up
