I think it's about a lack of knowing what to do with oneself after a break up and just wanting to escape from it all, the desire to stop relishing in it. Complete escapism is the priority while getting to terms with it being the end.
Even when another individual, who could potentially be the ex partner, who appears to be dealing with things better by the fact they are giving advice, is reinforcing the 'truth', that it is indeed the end.
The guitar is just perfect throughout this track. Love it!
This song is so good. I remember when it was first released February of last year and I listened to it on repeat for days on end. I agree with what you've said about the meaning. The fact that it's titled "Shallow" just adds to it. There's no depth anymore; whatever they once shared has completely disappeared.

Such a beautiful song by a brilliant band.
