This song is obviously about a poor relationship (hence they played it when Ben broke up with Felicity almost a decade ago!)

The blue parade is the misery (as represented by winter and snowflakes of her tears of the relationship)

"he don't read stars now"-indicates the future (like astrology) 'cause he's getting old so busy neutralizing so much it leaves me cold-So the love is growing old and cold..he's not into the relationship anymore.

"now leaves are falling from the mercy tree" -This is when things are going downhill..she's growing tired and the relationship is getting weak...there's a lack of genuine empathy.

"the blue surrounds me so I can get some sleep and Katie calls then she'll say there's good love out there just you wait you" -the ending of the relationship is draining..and in her world it's dark...she's depressed and the world is dark...so she's going to sleep..she doesn't wanna deal with it. Her good friend Katie tries to reassure her that there is good out there---and that she's coming over and warns her not to let anyone in (including her ex!)

This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard!
