Kind of reminds me of the sound of M83. Here's an idea of what I think it means. I think it might be a long shot.
By taking a look at the lyrics I figured this song might be about a person loving someone who hurts them. I can't tell from which perspective it's being told, but this is what I see.
"You, you hold my heart
You, you won't let up
After when I'm called
Touch turns into fisticuffs
It's all in your head
Wonder if I'm fixed to cut"
So I see this section about the love and it's an interesting play on words because there's both beautiful words that can define love (heart, touch, in your head, fixed), but at the same time there are words that describe hurt and not so beautiful things (won't let up, fisticuffs, cut).
"We are the hunger
That keeps you climing walls"
I think that the hunger here refers to staying even though leaving is a better option, even if you have to suffer (climb walls) to do it.
"For its statistics
In the collected whole"
Before when it says this it means in the bigger scheme of things...
"It's the one thing you can count on
We all end floating away
We all end floating away"
So it doesn't matter in the end, because everyone has the same fate, so why not stick it out together.
"Is it your fault?"
She's asking if it's his fault that she is this way, or if it's love or herself or who?
Then in the end the last verse... I think it's a monologue. So she's talking to herself saying that it's all over and it doesn't matter anymore. And when she says "I care when caring fades" I think she's reached the point of numbness, where she doesn't feel the pain she only feels the love.
PS: The great thing about this song is that the words and the actual melody are perfect for each other. You can literally have the song on loop and because of the way that it begins and ends it sounds like a never ending song, so you can never stop... you're fixed. (:
