im pretty sure this song is about asya's depression. i love it. amazingly sad, beautiful, touching and relatable.

the first 8 verses that talk about being lost alone is a cry of loneliness. "when you dont know me you dont have to lose" is a statement reaching out to the people that dont know what its like to be lonely. the people who dont know her problems, are living life happily without knowledge of her issues.

"I look out out my window I see through a waterfall It seems as if I could walk off the edge (suicide) If it weren’t for the barrier between (family & friends) The water’s pounding so hard (water=sadness/problems) It keeps my windows clean"

"If I could only see, See between
If the rain would stop, I could only be me"

This quote is saying: If she could look past the problems in her life, if the depression would stop, she could be herself.

And who will she be when the depression stops? I know.
