Or, instead of looking at it like every song is about a breakup, to me it almost sounds like he got shot by said girl maybe, maybe someone else. Cus at the end he says “guns still smoking, blood keeps flowing, blown wide open” I took that into big consideration by seeing if Thornley has an even deeper part of himself.

My Interpretation

@zeemulla could be a metaphor too (i.e. the whole story of the song). To me it is suggesting that they are trying to convince themselves they put the relationship behind them, but when then it hits them ... they still miss them / want them, that is when it feels like they've been shot and still bleeding (their heart).
