i agree with twclark76 with some of the stuff.

I think this is about 2 people in a relationship who both aren't very good at showing affection. She wants to tell him how much he means to her but she can't because she fears that he will think she's clingy and she's scared it will get awkward. Then they have a fight which is evident through the line..'walk out on stormy weather' but she doesn't want to this relationship to end so she doesn't say a word because she's scared it'll tear her relationship apart. The ending concludes with:

'Night time Sympathize I've been working on White lies So I'll tell the truth I'll give it up to you And when the day come It will have all been fun We'll talk about it soon'

which to me, say that every night, she looks back and thinks about her relationship and thinks that it might not work out but she still likes him. She doesn't say she loves him or shows affection but one day she'll have the courage to show him how much she loves him and it will be fun and they'll talk about their feelings together.

That's just one interpretation..

here's another one..

there's two bestfriends and one of them falls for the other person but doesn't want to ruin their friendship.

You mean that much to me And it's hard to show (hard to show affection)

Gets hectic inside of me When you go (when the other person(the bestfriend) is in another relationship it, it gets hetic inside of the other person who has fallen for the bestfriend)

Can I confess these things To you Well I don't know Embedded in my chest And it Hurts to hold (doesn't know how to tell the bestfriend, because he's/she's scared that he/she doesn't feel the same way)

I couldn't spill my heart My eyes gleam looking in from the dark I walk out in stormy weather Hold my words, keep us together Steady walking but bound to trip Should release but just tighten my grip (doesn't want show affection and tell the other person how he/she feels because they're scared it's going to cause a fight 'walk out on stormy weather.. hold my words, keep us together' he/she tries to forget about the bestfriend but he/she still can't get the bestfriend off his/her mind)

Night time Sympathize I've been working on White lies So I'll tell the truth I'll give it up to you And when the day come It will have all been fun We'll talk about it soon
(white lies, as in little lies.. every time the bestfriend asks who he/she likes he/she always lies and tells them..oh no one because he/she is scared to see the bestfriend's reaction.. but one day, he/she will tell them how he/she feels about the bestfriend and when he/she has the courage..they'll be able to talk about how they feel about each other)

sorry, if it was confusing.. haha but we all have our own interpretation :)
