My interpretation of this song is that it's about two lovers. As to what kind of relationship they have, I'm not sure. Maybe, it's an "open relationship" or maybe they're just "friends with benefits." And maybe they're tricking themselves into thinking that they are happy with the arrangement that they currently have but they are in denial. If the relationship has no future or is loveless, why continue being in one? That's what I get from the following line: "The only thing you've got, you know you're better off without it." It's better to stay single and wait for the right person to come along rather than staying in a pointless relationship with someone based on a fear of being alone or lonely.
