Someone leaves his lover, sick of many things about him ("all of the hours you keep", "footsteps [...] dragging behind", "the cages we lock ourselves in", etc.), drunk with the newfound liberties. But ultimately, he doesn't like being alone.
This loneliness could be argued to actually be a longing for the ex-lover - something the author might find hard to admit, hence it wouldn't be clearly stated. If this is true, the whole song might be an attempt at convincing himself that he doesn't love this person.
Though it seems that the author was the one who actively broke up the relationship, there is no proof that it was not the other way around or mutual.
