I think this song (at the beginning) shows how warm and welcoming one place once was, but how cold and desolate it is now. They are talking to someone, maybe a past lover, a family member, one who they are trying to forget deeply. Then, we go into the constant pondering and realization of "Are our words more than sound? We cut the air and we’ve found to lose your faith in the world is to lose faith in yourself." basically saying that they are asking whomever "is it really worth it? is losing your faith in something really worth the trouble?"
