I feel like this song is NOT about death. No, I believe it is about that relashonship ending and the feeling of sorrow, beyond belief...to the point where you simply feel dead.
"Laid the blessings on the ground" could mean like you laid the towel on the ground, one of you just gave up...they are done.
"Watch the coals till the seize to glow to me means that that you simply fell out of love.like at first you were so I love, and it was like a fire blazing!! But slowly you guys stopped feeding the fire...and eventually the fire was just a small pile of coals...and they soon would go out. You are not in love anymore...
"Empty promises" could be like promising to be togehter forever...and ending up splitting up, breaking promises like it ment nothing to you.
"Why did you go away?" Is saying why did you fall out of love with me? Why did you leave me here with all this pain? What did i do wrong? How could you just leave, walk away from all that we had, all the memories we made?
"There's nothing I can say, nothing I can do to bring you back again" could mean that she already made up her mind long ago, she is done. She is gone and you cant change her mind anymore, that time is up.
Also, the way he calls her "baby" at the end shows that she was close to him, that they were in a relationship...
This is all the feeling of sorrow, pain, regret,guilt, depression, being emotionally drained,empty....just dead.
