Ofcourse we all use personal experiences to interpret everything. My personal interpretation goes this way...
One night he's at a party with this friend of his who is dancing and rubbing up against half the guys in the bar. After the party ends and the bar closes, he takes her home to make sure she's safe, but they are both lonely and at the top of the steps or possibly on her roof or balcony they end up sharing a passionate kiss, have sex and enter into a relationship.
This is a relationship where it all started because of her beauty and her body (i.e lust), but there was love also. But they realized that the relationship was headed no where and called it off, but he still loves her as a friend. And because he still loves her as a friend he's sorry that the relationship never worked out.
And I loved you when our love was blessed
And I love you now there's nothing left
But sorrow and a sense of overtime
And I missed you since the place got wrecked
And I just don't care what happens next
Looks like freedom but it feels like death
It's something in between, I guess
The breakup was freedom from a bad relationship and each other but the pain of it still makes it feel like death.
Now years later, they bump into each other at a bar and she's old but she still dresses to attract men like she did when she was young. They laugh and drink and they dance a little but there is an awkwardness and something is missing, which is why the place seems dead. He realizes the awful truth which was that they threw away a friendship for sex and in the long run the sex wasn't really worth as much as he had valued her friendship.
And the whole damn place goes crazy twice
And it's once for the devil and once for Christ
But the Boss don't like these dizzy heights
We're busted in the blinding lights,
When they realize what they gave up, their mind goes crazy with the realization the first time. The second time is when the fleeting thought comes in that they still care about/love each other and maybe it can work.
But life (i.e. the boss) has taken them down different paths and when reality takes hold and their dreams of being together again are busted.
