The meaning is pretty straightforward. I really like the metaphor "You broke me like a mirror, seven years keep adding up." The "Walk barefoot through the glass--not a single cut" basically means that he's completely shattered and she just walks all over him and he can't do anything about it; what she did does not hurt her, and he can't do anything to get back at her.
@SeanZiii I think you nailed it. And I also think he feels exposed and powerless, and the pain is never ending. Her match will never light but his will burn infinitely
