To me it's clearly about their relationship falling apart, becoming doubtful of the relationship and eachother.
It's a step, it's a step in the right direction
It's a tough and final decision
Cause where will I go when I'm feeling blue
Spinning my wheels, wasting my time
Making you feel like you've nothing to hide
The step is likely time apart or something on that level. Could also be straight up breaking up. She knows she will feel lonely and no longer have someone to help her in tough times. The "making you feel you've nothing to hide" part makes me think she wants him to open up completely. Better to sort things out than let them eat at you.
So save me and tell me how it all got so doubtful
Leaving nothing out, back on the old road
Permission to wind me down,
Give me a mouthful, and leaving nothing out.
She wants to be saved from blaming herself and to be able to go back to the time before him. She hopes he gets mad and says it all; making it clear that this is the right thing to do: seperation.
I think that's the main thought behind the song. It's very touching.
