I don't think this song is about a fighting couple (though it certainly could be). I think it's about the realization that we and everybody we love are going to die, and no matter how you fight to keep going (whether it's maintaining a relationship, or simply living or anything we fight for), in the end we're all dust. So all is forgiven. All the times spent with others become memories, and once there's no one left to remember them, it'll be as if they never even happened.
You laid it on the line
These twisted words of time
And how your spirit shines
I wish that you were mine
Even when you have someone to love and to love you back, you can never <i>really</i> have them. And that's very sad. Life is pain, etc.
Great opening line. And so true.
