@the_howee: Yes, same place I heard it. Great song for the scene too.
It's a guessing game, but this is what I've come up with thus far.
you can't be well enough alone
you're twisting, going further from home,
we're spinning out of control
You're screwed up and cannot handle it alone, and your actions are driving us apart...driving you further away from "home" (our life)
no touch, no feel
you take you steal
you're slipping into patterns again
another night of cigarettes and short breath
Clearly, the last statement suggests that whoever is speaking has been seeing the same stuff over and over again....cigarettes are stress relievers. Too much stress = shortness of breath. Question is: What is the problem? Could the beginning mean "don't touch me without permission"?
it's hard to keep it holy
i try to keep it clean, but honesty is wearing thin
don't make me give in
This is a tough one. It could be from the perspective of the speaker, suggesting that they'll be unable to keep it civil and honest (about what's going on) for much longer. However, someone suggested some kind of relationship issue (cheating). Perhaps...but the lyrical method suggests it's referring to the person speaking.
it went too far,
it left us scarred
and you've come apart
it went too far,
far from the start
and changed who we are
This is fairly obvious IMO. "Ya screwed up so much it's left a dent/scar...our relationship is far from what it was when we got together"

Sounds good, but what do I know. I'm in my very first relationship since I married in the late 80's....
