Don't Turn Away
Under the sun I stand
Over the wings of fallen angels.
I can't believe the things you show me.
In my dreams I have you next to me.
Forever gone is love.
Out of control, I fall in trenches.
And if you leave me empty,
How will I design the world I need?
In your eyes you see it done:
Colors drain away like water.
Distance all but disappeared,
And nothing can be done.
Don't; don't turn away.
Don't let it take you over.
You cannot give in.
Don't let it take you over now.
And in your eyes I catch
A tiny glimpse of heaven calling.
You try to stay in touch, but can you
End what has no real beginning.
In your eyes you see it done:
Colors drained away like water.
Distance all but disappeared,
And nothing can be done.
Don't; don't turn away.
Don't let it take you over.
You cannot give in.
Don't let it take you over now.
And I walk away
And leave you right where you stand
I'll never regret all that I said to you.But you never turned away
You never turned away.
You never turned away.
You never turned away.
You never turned away.
Don't; don't turn away.
Don't let it take you over.
You cannot give in.
Don't let it take you over.
Don't; don't turn away.
Don't let it take you over.
You cannot give in.
Don't let it take you over now.
And I walk away
And leave you right where you stand
I'll never regret all that I said to you.But you never turned away
You never turned away.
You never turned away.
You never turned away.
You never turned away.
Don't; don't turn away.
Don't let it take you over.
You cannot give in.
Don't let it take you over.
Don't; don't turn away.
Don't let it take you over.
You cannot give in.
Don't let it take you over now.

"I'll never regret all that I said to you. But you never turned away." To me this line suggests that hes moved on, but the feeling of her not completely letting go will be left in him, thus making the struggle harder.
Hopefully this makes sense.
The chorus' 'Don't turn away/Don't let it take you over" could mean he is slowly being filled with sorrow/anger/lust, but he is telling himself to not turn away and try to block it out, otherwise his feelings may take him over.
