Here we have a person with either a friend, boyfriend / girlfriend, anything really. There's no key words in the song indicating that it's any kind of relationship in particular, so I assume it could be about a person and anyone else close to them. I'll use two close friends of the same sex; not a couple.
"I could only be myself, with you around. Oh, with you around. And now there's nothing left for me to think about. Whoa, to think about." In my opinion, I see it as two friends who could be themselves around each other. Then, one friend parts from the other, possibly from an argument. The other is hurt and feels like they can't think without the other person occupying their thoughts.
"And it hurts like hell, To be torn apart. And it hurts like hell, To be thrown around." This part of the song talks about the person feeling hurt that their relationship / friendship had to end, and even though the two may not speak to each other anymore, there's an emotional barrier between them that makes the person feel like they're being emotionally sucker-punched.
"We were born to be together, Torn apart. Torn apart. We were born to be together, Torn apart. Torn apart." Now, the person speaks about how the friend and him / her were supposed to have each other's back, be friends, etc. and that they were torn apart from each other by their foolish argument.
"You stepped with a heavy tread and left your mark. Oh, your mark on me. The space you used to fill is now this great black hole. Oh, you're out of sight but not out my mind." The speaker says that the friend was their everything, and that there isn't one thing that doesn't leave a mark of the friend on it; and even though they barely see each other anymore the speaker says they're not out of his / her mind.
The rest of the song basically is the same lyrics over and over; and that's the end of it.
Alright. Let's begin.
