I hope I got the lyrics right, I wrote them by ear.
Anyway, I think this song is sad, but cleaver.
I think the first verse is him talking about how lucky and lovely it is to be in love and to be loved by the person he is currently with.
The second verse is him realising that she isn't treating him right ("More or less the cigarette butts of all your jokes"). How she thinks he's a joke and basically treats him like crap.
The third verse is him making a stand and taking action. Telling her that he isn't going to take it anymore. He's realised that he deserves better and that now he is going to focus on making something new.
