I think this is about straight up unrequited love.
"Impossible Germany
Unlikely Japan
Wherever you go
Wherever you land"
He is pining for someone who he doesn't know very well. I think she flits in and out of his life. He is wondering where she is headed, figuratively and literally speaking.
"I'll say what this means to me
I'll do what I can
Impossible Germany
Unlikely Japan"
He is determined to be honest about his feelings and telling her is as much as he can do to try to control the situation and he is hoping she will reciprocate those feelings.
"(The) fundamental problem
(We) all need to face
This is important
But I know you're not listening
No I know you're not listening"
He is frustated because she is ignoring or disregarding his confession. It is seemingly meaningless to her.
"(If) this was still new to me
I wouldn't understand
Impossible Germany
Unlikely Japan"
Either he has been through this before with other people or this is just the latest in a series of pleas to her.
"This is what love is for
To be out of place
Gorgeous and alone
Face to face"
They may be individuals who don't fit in and he relates to her in that way. If she would just give him a chance, she would see that they were meant to be.
"With no larger problems
That need to be erased
Nothing more important
Than to know someone's listening
Now I know you'll be listening"
He longs for a new start with this girl. It is fresh and free of problems and fights-nothing to apologize for (yet). It's his dream scenario that she will hear him and want to be with him too.
