Definitely agree on what the other user already said.
It's about him being traumatized by an abusive partner for a very long time, feeling he's been too patient or having given her too many chances, only to be abused and mistreated for longer just because he loved her and wanted to be the best man he could. Now while separated (or perhaps finally divorced) he's feeling these things because the memories and trauma is still deeply haunting and affecting him.
I think everyone who's been there can relate a lot to these lyrics. Without doubt one of Insomnium's best and most underrated songs. Their earlier albums deserve more attention from people these days.
