To me it seems like they're in a relationship, and she's exhausted from things going wrong.
It's not that anything big has happened, but it's all the small things that are killing her over and over.
It could be that he has depression and isn't coping with anything, and that it's putting strain on their relationship. She loves him, but no matter what she does to try and help him it's never enough.
The line "I'm a natural in the dark" seems to me that she's had depression herself, which may explain why she's so understanding of his behaviour, even though it's tearing her up inside.
In the end, she just wants things to be good again - or at least to be able to pretend together that things are okay, even for a moment.
