Maybe I've got tunnel vision about this, and only see things in this way due to a bad breakup, but this looks kind of like that.
One side (I'm guessing the man due to Alan's vocal dominance) gave his all and then some in this relationship, thus becoming passive; willing to please his significant other by any means possible. Naturally, going by the somber and mournful sound of this song, that significant other cheated/broke up/did something that ended the relationship, giving her "nothing to steal", "nothing to love," and "nothing to spill" because he is now gone.
Of course he misses her, and rhetorically tells her of all of the wonderful things they could have done together ("I could have built you a house on the ocean"), but she doesn't listen, bringing us to the present (the "live feed") which is of loneliness and despair.
