I always thought this song was about his brother or someone who he felt was like a brother to him. "Suits were made for men, not boys" expresses the feeling that this person is too young to die, and he "holds my brother's hand, and I'm his mother's stand in" means he was there for him when his mother wasn't or couldn't be there.
But, I'm confused by the part that says there's blood around her and that he needs her. Maybe this woman and this brother or friend were both shot?
I think it is about two boys. The older brother walks in and see's his Mother in a blood. The boys are young and they can't comprehend the blood and cleaning it up. Thinking cleaning it up will make it better. The ambulance takes their Mother and the speeding of the ambulance is telling you the intensity of the situation. SUITS WERE MADE FOR MEN, NOT BOYS is that they were too young to be wearing suits to a funeral for their Mother. They were too young to loose their Mother.

The older brother was now taking his Mother's place to care for his little brother. It hits him that his Mother is gone like a drug addict realizes they have no drugs. Once it hits him, that his Mother is actually gone, the break down of emotion comes head on. I see a boy at a funeral screaming inside that he doesn't want his Mother gone. That he needs her. That he is too young to handle this on his own.
" don't wanna go
And I don't wanna go
If it means goodbye
And I don't wanna go
I don't wanna see her
If it's the last time"
He doesn't want to leave her grave because then that means she is really gone.
"And this faith that we fake is a choice."
just speaks for itself.
