My interpretation of this song, is that it's about a boy.
He was with a girl, or possibly a friend, who would treat him badly, and drag him down, but he's realized he's better than this, and deserves better, so he "opens up his eyes" and says "goodbye".
When Raine sings;
"I'm sorry, I can't lie
I'm wasting too much time,
Drowning, I've been blind"
It puts me under the impression that he would lie to whomever, prior to his realization, and he would go along with what they said, in fear of losing a friend, or lover. When he states he's been wasting too much time, it's him coming to the realization that this relationship is a waste of his time, and will only male him worse, rather than better.
In saying he was drowning, Raine is basically saying the relationship was drowning him.
This is my impression of it, at least.
