I think this is clearly about someone (in this case a guy) who was cheated on. I'm surprised not everyone realizes this.
I tried to own you I thought I would (he "thought" he owned her but she wasn't loyal)
I want to peel the skin from your face (as a result he's angry/feeling violent)
Before the real you lays to waste (the "real" her is a cheater)
You told me I'm the only one (clear hint that she cheated)
Sweet little angel you should have run (to escape his anger)
Lying, crying, dying to leave
Innocence creates my hell (HIS innocence in trusting her)
Cheating myself still you know more
It would be so easy with a whore (he's contemplating cheating back)
Lost inside my sick head
I live for you but I'm not alive (he feels out of control, dead inside)
Take my hand before I kill (feels like killing the "other" guy)
I still love you, but, I still burn (yet still loves her)
I think it's 100% about adultery/cheating but still loving the person who did it to you.

Actually, the real her is not a cheater. That's why he doesn't want her to lay to waste.
