This song is very sad, and yet also provides hope. To me it sounds like the singer is going through so many struggles in life, and when he goes to get help, the people he thought would help wouldn't because he's been shouldering these struggles by himself for so long he's grown distant from everyone he cared about. So he decides to turn to God (unfortunately, as a last resort) and God DOES help him with his problems.
"You take away
You take away
You take away"
Of course, God wasn't my immediate thought as I heard this song (even though I'm Christian). But after I listened to it a couple of times, I got the meaning.
Though, this song could easily be interpreted differently. It could be about him shouldering so many struggles, then he goes to the one he loves, but they won't help him (for an unknown reason). He becomes so depressed that he gives up on trying to find someone (though he's still screaming on the inside for help), and he's so far gone that it's to the point where he's all alone and that he has no friends and he isn't close with his living family.
"I'm breaking; I can't do this on my own
Can you hear me screaming out, am I all alone?"
But then he meets someone (probably another lover) and they actually care about him. They get so close that he tells her about his problems and she helps him through them.
I, personally, think it's the first interpretation I offered in this post, but that's my opinion.=)
