I feel like it's about two friends or lovers who had a really close relationship, but something happens to one of them, and the other is trying to get over it and cope with the pain of loss.
The first part talks about they knew each other when they were young, creating a close bond and that the two impact each other, that the little things affect you for life.
The chorus suggests that maybe the two had a falling out before it happened, and never got to say sorry or work it out, or that maybe they died in a particularly cruel or harsh way. "It's been cold for years, won't you let it dry," tells you that possibly they were reminded, or perhaps they brought it up on the news, still trying to figure out what it is, and the one trying to get over him/her just wants to forget.
The next verse says that the more they remember the person, the more they feel like they're breaking, instead of coping. They still really miss the person (They've been friends since childhood/teenage years) and they hate whoever kill/abducted their lover/friend, and grow more and more angry, but they know they need to give up and go on
The bridge is simply stating that they don't want to have anything to do with this anymore. He or she would simply like to forget it happened.
