Before I give my interpretation, I want to give a brief summary of the video: According to the music video, it seems like Jake and Elize had gotten into an argument and Jake feels regretful. While the music video does not say why, the video starts off by foreshadowing Elize involved in a car wreck. Halfway through the video, it shows Jake and Elize argue (as said earlier) and Jake leaves the car. In a spark of anger, Elize drives off and Jake walks the road, presumably home. Down the road, Jake sees several fire engines and Jake's guilt kicks in. As you might of guessed, Elize was involved in a car wreck (just her) with the car upside down. Jake then goes insane seeing her dead. From my point of view, it seems like Jake had wished he never left the car and was involved in the wreck with Elize, hence the lines:
"Burn with me
I'm just an empty shell".
Since Elize is dead, it is clear this will stay in Jake's conscience forever, and he will most likely pin the blame on himself. Moral of the song/video: Be careful on how you treat others. You never know if their last day alive will be today or tomorrow.
