I think this song may be about someone who is close to a friend or someone who is thinking about commiting suicide.
"You're tired of waking up." giving up on life, and when she cries he doesn't want her to, since it's not her fault they feel that way. The singer feels bad for him, and doesn't want him to go, "When i start to cry, you say i'm not allowed to."
The person who feels like giving up has tried reaching out to his parents "you're parents tried but they didnt know how to." Which could also lead to the suicide thing, since he doesnt know how to better himself since he was never taught. The singer wants to stay by his side, but he's pushing away, trying to convince her that it's okay. "Let me stand by your side."
But no matter what she says he wants to give up.
The 'burning beacon in the night' is like a light of hope, salvation if you will. but it cannot reach her friend. "can't feel it's heat." He is too far gone into the mind set of letting everything go.
Maybe it's because i've got through a situation like this, but that's what it reminds me of. Might not be it, but could be?
