This song is written so beautifully with so much sweet sentiment.....I think it's about the End of a Relationship between 2 people and the insecurity, confusion and jealousy that comes with it.
"I know you won't admit this
I am just a silhouette to you
You found comfort with my distance
But you never let me stray out of your view"
That stage after the end of a relationship where you question if your other half felt the things for you that you thought he did....I think They're not over each other which would make the breakup more painful....By Silhouette/shadow....The girl feels that she is one in regards to the guy...Means less to him then before.....She's frustrated that he's able to deal with the breakup better, but yet won't give her the clean break that she needs.
"Who really needs the past
With the allure of something new
So we split apart at last
Went back to the places that I knew
Before you"
She wants to move on from him, or she's trying to convince herself to...ya know, 'grass is always greener' thinking....trying to look forward to what's next, and not what was.....
"And you'll never have to see
The light that wraps itself around me
And I'll never have to know
The faces there
The places you go"
By being as far from each other as possible...They won't have to watch/endure the moving on to the next love/happiness that isn't each other....They won't have to see that special light/softness in each others eyes,and know that it's not for them...they're trying to convince themselves it's as easy as 'out of sight...out of mind'
"When I can't bear the resistance
I bend in shapes and in ways that i never knew
So I'll try to postpone my existence
yeah I'll stop or start my heart.... if you ask me to
I'll stop my heart.....and then I'll wait for you"
The guy isn't really coping with the breakup like the girl thinks he is.....It's seems if she gives him a sign that he doesn't have to let her go or move on from her...well he's not gonna...He'll stop his heart and wait for her....He'll fight for them.
"I was sure....I never would be sure....we were in love
(Although it's dark and black)
I am sure...I never will be sure...of love to come
(There is one thing left to hold on to)
After you"
only realizing now, what they had meant so much......although it's painful now for both of them...and they're not sure if they ever will get over each other....They have to try to be optimistic that 'time and distance heals'
"So hold on tightly to your vice
and pull the wool over your eyes
No matter what, you'll always see..
the outline that is left from me (2x)"
No matter what they try to convince themselves of......they've left an imprint/silhouette on each other that will be impossible to get rid of.
It's a very bittersweet song about the downside of Love....Really beautiful <33
