In my opinion, this song is about two lonely people in love with someone they cant have. they console each other up on melancholy hill, which can be both a place and a state of mind.
the plastic tree is something organic that has been made fake, in that sense, despite they're not who theyd like to be with, it is at least 'medication'.
toward the end of the song, the main character decides that instead of pursuing what he cant have, he falls in love with the other person.
This sounds like me and my girlfriend. We used to only talk about Gorillaz, we ended up falling for each other, but that was two years ago, we just started dating almost 9 months ago. :3 This is our song now. xD

My idea of the meaning is similar, but not exactly the same. I think the song is about one guy in love with someone who does not correspond. But since this person seems not to find true love (what you want) he asks to settle for him, even if he knows they (or at least she) will never be completely happy. Despite of being a fake (the plastic tree) he would confort and they would be at least sad together.
