Wow my interpretation of this song is so much different from everyone else.
I don't think this song has anything to do with love in relationships, or a girl, in fact I think this song has to do with God, maybe addressing people in his life trying to convert him into Christianity.
Chase your dreams away - Chasing away the things you loved to do, the things that are considered "sin", or chasing away the life of "sin"
Glass needles in the hay - Think about glass, it's transparent, and if you were to make needles from it and toss it into hay you'd never find it. I think this lyric is talking about trading in your dreams and desires for faith. Something you can't see, something you're constantly searching for but you just know is there. Christianity is the faith based religion.
The sun forgives the clouds - A reference to Jesus, the holy Son, forgiving the sins of His people
You are my holy shroud - This indicates to me that it's probably someone close in his life who wants to save him, probably a family member.
I just don't care if it's real
That won't change how it feels - Addressing the matter, he's saying he doesn't care if all of what this person is telling him is the truth. He still wants to be who he is and do what he wants despite any possible consequences
And you can't resist
Making me feel eternally missed
You can't resist
You can't resist
Making me feel - He's saying that despite his rejections to that life this person still continues to try and convince him. The lyric "Eternally Missed" in particular stand out. It's a reference to Eternity, heaven, the afterlife, and how this person tries to to sell the life to him by telling him that heaven wants his soul (as in heaven will miss him if he doesn't jump on board)
So yeah, I totally disagree that this song has anything to do with a female breaking his hear or lying or anything like that. I think it better fits into this interpretation, but who can know for sure?
