Though I owe you, I owe you no allegiance

-He feels as though he owes her, but he doesn’t really owe her anything compared what she did to him

But I still feel guilty for the things that I have done These past fifteen days

-He feels that he owes her for the things that he’s done recently

It was easy To just let it happen

-He thinks that it was easy for her to betray him because she didn’t really care

I've been with people who sing gorgeous songs While you're just ringing in my ear

-Even though hes surrounded himself with good people, he cant get the thought of what she did to him out of his head, those thoughts are the ringing in his ears

And filling with envy Who will you turn to now?

-She is wants him back because she has no where else to go It was your decision I won't hear you With hating and screaming still ringing in my ear

-But he doesn’t have any sympathy for the decision she made because it was her own fault, she brought it upon herself. He also has no sympathy for her because he still hates what she did and he still carries those thoughts with him

You threw me away Away to the jackals But the jackals they showed me a good time While you're just ringing in my ear

-When he was depressed about her betraying him, he resorted to a lot of girls, the jackals. Jackals aren’t a good thing, so I think the women were bad people and were just toying with him, but they showed him a good time…..the whole time he was with other women he was thinking about her and how she betrayed him

I toasted marshmallows While you burned our bridges down

-Toasting marshmallows is innocent and playful, she burned bridges/his trust by betraying him

And I looked at landscapes that I had forgotten Lit up by the fire

-The landscapes are the good times that they had, that were lit up/destroyed by the fire/problems she created

And filling with envy Who will you turn to now? It was your decision I won't hear you With hating and screaming still ringing in my ear

It's a sunny September The colors are bright here And the birds sing of beautiful places While you are just ringing in my ear

-He is slowly but surely getting over it, he is thinking more positively, but the thoughts of what she did are still there in the back of his mind
