This song is soo beautiful. I often wake up with it in my head, the bit that goes "and I sleep through most my days so the time goes by, and I think I drink more now than ever"
I think it's about being completely exhausted by something, in this case a relationship. It's like she is saying, i'm going to drink and sleep too much to make the time pass, but I'm going to do something to fix things, and don't come after me because I am too exhausted and hurt (I'm gonna set things right, I've got a job down south, don't you think about coming after me).
