It's about how he's cheated on his girl and she kicked him out so he decided to leave town (hence him buying the toothbrush, toothpaste, etc., etc., and a suitcase and going to the airport). And he starts missing his girl and realizing that "there's no other". He even dreams about her (which are interrupted by the alarm clock going off ("i fumble for the clock alarmed by the seduction" - i.e. he was having a dream of him and her and the alarm clock went off)). It's pretty much a song about regret.
I agree mostly. I'm not sure he was necessarily cheating, but might have done something bad enough to have his old girlfriend break up with him. Then like observer01 said, he meets a new girl but in his heart knows that he doesn't really love her the way he loves his old girlfriend. That is the "truth" he discovered since his old girlfriend left.

I'm still not fully sure what to make of the last verse, though, especially "but it's not my conscience/that hates to be untrue."

I love the line "but it's not my conscience/that hates to be untrue" because he's basically saying his mind doesn't want to cheat, but the fruits of his loin. LOL
