This song is about running away from one's problems and the regret which accompanies that. He is seeking solace in the act of leaving, expecting to find something to replace what he lost, something that he misses dearly. Yet, the singer cannot manage to find that something and is instead only met by disappointment. He begins to doubt if he made the right decision, even if it wasn't his to make. The chorus echoes these doubts as he ponders what could have been.
