To me this song seems as if in a former relationship the two were involved but regardless of how much he cared about her, she was undecided and couldn't love him back in the same way. They meet again as if they were strangers, although they both remember their past together. I think the inability to remember the name part is moreso saying that he's over it, although he feels as if she thinks it still affects him. "This scar is a flec on my porcelaine skin" means that he'll always remember the way she hurt him, but he's saying he doesn't regret it, and the "house down the road with real love" seems to signify that he's found a person with whom he's fallen in love with and from whom he recieves what he needs.

I like this interpretation, except I would say that the line "This scar is a fleck on my porcelain skin" suggests that she was once affected and hurt by the relationship, as it was a scar. However, she grew up and moved past it, as it is now merely a fleck, which denotes that it is small and barely noticeable amongst the rest of her life experiences. So the relationship was once something that seriously impacted her, but I feel like they both moved on and can co-exist with a sense of nostalgia, rather than reflecting on the pain of...
