in the blinded I parade
you're the only one I see
We have ventured far and wide
in the hope that you'll believe
that every waking day we find
will reveal an open door
you turned my life around
but I don't need you anymore
we risked our lives on a feeling
it could all work out
realize that you're wrong when you're leaving
and nothing you do could change it
well maybe I could say what you say
and if only I could do as you do
it's all in the way that we are
we'll always be the reason we loose
I can feel the sting in your stare
you'll never see the hole in my heart
but whatever, you didn't carry me this far
well I could hide my love away as we walk with head in hands
when every lesson learned could be the reason why you ran
and now your only hope is with the only friend you'll see
with friends as good as yours
there's no need for enemies
we risked our lives on a feeling
it could all work out
realize that you're wrong when you're leaving
and nothing you do can change it
well maybe I could say what you say
if only I could do as you do
it's all in the way that we are
we'll always be the reason we loose
I can feel the sting in your stare
you'll never see the hole in my heart
but whatever, you didn't carry me this far
we have fought in the pouring rain
just to hide our tears
the only thing you gave to me
is a feeling that I've lost (yes)
couldn't turn my days around of believing what you say
without walking out
we risked our lives on a feeling
it could all work out
realize that you're wrong when you're leaving
and nothing you do can change it
well maybe I could say what you say
if only I could do as you do
it's all in the way that we are
we'll always be the reason we loose
I can feel the sting in your stare
you'll never see the hole in my heart
but whatever, you didn't carry me this far
we risked our lives on a feeling
it could all work out
realize that you're wrong when you're leaving

I usually don't do lyric corrections, but this is my current theme song, so it had to be done.
Specifically, seeing the "spring in the step" of the girl who's happy without you will definitely create a "hole in your heart". Also, "the feeling that I've lost 'years'," is extremely pertinent to the emotion of the song, when you consider how long he's been waiting for this relationship to happen. Probably a friendship that was "risked" to an unsatisfying end.
It's ultimately about the person who changes your life by not being in it. It seems like a contradiction at first, but makes sense when you realize that you have to be willing to change to become the kind of man she deserves. "Whatever you did, it carried me this far..." is the acceptance of moving on, becoming a better man with no pretense of winning her over.
I can't wait for the full length album. These guys rock.
