I personally think this is about the man's biggest conundrum. Choosing between finding a beautiful amazing woman and settling down, or burying yourself deeply into drug addiction and other things that we know are bad, but make us feel a distorted sense of satisfaction.
The first verse is about his experience with love and having a loved one in his life
The second verse is the opposite and how he feels when he doesn't have that love in his life
Holding a gun to my head
So send me an angel
Or bury me deeply instead
With demons to lean on
He's not happy with his life so he thinks maybe there is someone ( an angel ) who can make him feel better. Or he can bury himself deeply with bad things that make him feel better.
the next verse is again about not having a loved one in his life and feeling somewhat worthless
the numb part is just saying that he knows he has feeling and that he can feel love and he's not just some mindless drone or something
I love this song.

Just my interpretation. I really like the song.
