I feel the song is about someone going through a difficult time in a relationship where they are going through a transition/break-up. It might be that this person wants to hang on to the relationship and feels the other person doesn't believe them, "receive" their love, or reciprocate and it's very depressing. The thing they have to look forward to is finally reaching that "better place" (if they ever get there). I just feel it's a song about someone wanting to hang on but realizing they must let go to get to a better place. "Release me from this need I have of me" is one of the most powerful lines in the song because they want to get over it but it's very hard for them to let go. I experienced everything in this song just recently.
