My interpretation of this song is someone who is struggling with their personal demons, possibly dealing with depression (maybe even some kind of addiction) and trying to move forward with their life and at the same time contemplating a new relationship.
This struggle leaves him without energy to put in a new relationship but still wants to be close to her "Let me think about it babe,Let me hold ya". He struggles with his personal demons from his past "There’s a cold wind blowing down my old road". He wants to move forward with his life but knows it won’t be easy to escape his troubled mind.
“There’s just a stranger living in me” references a depression causing him to not feel like himself. He gives a disclaimer, “And you see me pull away again”, that if he gives a new relationship a try and pulls away it’s because of what he is struggling with. He then expresses how he feels in the end of all this "alone here living in darkness"
