the dark charade is depression. The song delves into their battle with depression and fighting to overcome it. People told them to get over it or simply didn't understand their mental situation at the time. This is an attempt to try and explain it to those people.
a relationship that has gone astray. They tried their best, but never seemed to be enough and this song is them asking for an explanation of why? what needed to be done? The last line in the song really hits this home for me, in that perhaps they finally have realised that no matter what they did their partner did not really love them (hence liar!)
