It sounds like the writer has been in a relationship that is nearing the end, that she isn't ready to let go of.
I'm in the middle of your bed, [she's feeling balanced]
but you're pushed to the side of it [he's about to exit the relationship]
and your hands are tucked
into your sleeves.
No luck in reaching them. [He's closed off emotionally to her]
We could be fire.
We could be. [ We could still be in love.]
What do you dream [What do you think of while you're mentally checked out]
while I'm wide awake, [ I'm still in this]
picking at pillow seams? [picking fights]
Frozen like statues, [not breaking up yet due to complacency]
I'm restless but afraid to move. [if we talk about it you could break up with me]
We could be fire.
We could be. [ If we try, we can reignite our passion]
