I have a strong opinion that this song is about depression.
He compares how it used to be to how "winter came and put a freeze on my heart".
The guy is in a bad emotional situation that affects his loved one also.
He feels the need to get away from it all - "i'm leaving this weary town" and start somewhere new because in the current situation he feels like he can't last another day - "understand? (I wont last another day)".
He begs his significant other to understand what he is going through and the fact that he needs to leave. He begs her to be at peace.
