I thought I'd come and see you
in your long AND lazy scene
...
I've never seen a black SO dark.
Interpretation:
Guy is flying in to visit his ex. Either through a divorce with the man himself or by her marrying another man an adopting his name instead of her maiden name, he cannot get used
the change in her name from what he knew her as. The return is rather tense based on the history of the separation between the two people.

The next part about the keys is a bit unclear but it appears the girl has a friend ("body-double") meet him first. The entire exchange is very orchestrated and planned out to avoid conflict. Nonetheless, the man enters her apartment and drops off the keys without an incident (perhaps, to spite her, without even confronting her at all) and leaves immediately thereafter.

On his plane back, he tries to drink his sorrows away but they catch up with him. He's obviously shattered by his history with this girl and starts freaking out after he's in the air("I've never seen a black so dark"). He tries to console himself by calling a close friend or perhaps his actual brother. He also tries to reason with himself that the past is in the past and that there's nothing more he can do. The cogwheel only goes one direction like time only moves forward.
