In my opinion, I feel like this song was about a girl who died and had eye cancer that made her blind, insomnia, and depression

"Bury me in the bedroom where I, I can sing you to sleep all night, hold me next to your open windows then promise me a second time" Here, the boy likes to sing the girl to sleep, the bedroom is the hospital room.

"Cause I don't want to leave without you buried by my side, I'd rather kill the one responsible for fallen stars at night, cause they fall all around me, the night could be deadly" He doesn't want her to die, and the stars are defined as sadness. They fall around him, causing sadness, severe sadness could lead to death, in which he states "The night could be deadly''

"They'll never take us alive'' Death isn't going to take THEM alive, stating that if she dies, then he'll die.

"(can you chase away the darkness?), to live in love, and die'' Here, when it goes "Can you chase away the darkness", I picture the girl saying that, saying her sickness is the darkness, and she wants him to make it go away. The last part, he's stating that he'll fall in love with her, and then die.

"Last night, she recited every reason she's fine, so if we're headed there together at the same time, you sing while I drive'' The girl is depressed, and she lies to him, telling him that she's fine; okay. When he says "So if we're headed there together at the same time'' he's stating that he's going to die with her, and they're going to go to Heaven together at the same time.

  • i skipped ahead by alot >.< *

''And this is only a test, sober and scaring me to death'' God is testing them, and the boyfriend is scared that she could die, literally any second.

"And I don't care if you're sick, I don't care if you're contagious, I would kiss you even if you were dead" Here he is saying that, even if she's sick, even if she could share her cancer with him, and if she was dead, he would kiss her anyways. It's pretty self explanatory.

"Would somebody make me go blind for the rest of my life, cause I'd do anything to hold your hand?" Since the girlfriend is blind due to her cancer, he wants to be blind too, just to feel how she feels. Even if he dies or not, he wants to be blind, because he feels terrible for how his girlfriend feels.

  • skips even more things >.< *

"I'm gonna tear out the thread one by one from your skin till your bones feel embarrased by all the attention" He's going to tear her apart, and save her from her sickness. He's going to find out what's killing her, and fix it.
