this song is definitely about a failing relationship. but it can be interpreted in many different ways.
in my opinion, this song is most likely about a lover who is more in love with a certain drug than with the person who is singing this. the girl singing is smart, and she realizes this.
"wake up you're getting high on your own supply"
well, this is pretty self explanatory. the guy is literally getting high on his own supply of drugs.
however, it can also be interpreted to mean that he doesn't even see what's going on around him. he has himself built up to greatness in his mind when that's not how he is in reality
"oh baby you're still alive when you could've died"
this line could mean a number of things. it could mean simply be grateful for what you have. you're still alive when, like everyone, you could have easily died hundreds of times. it could mean look at us, i'm still with you when i could have left you. or even, if he's on drugs, he wouldn't literally still be awake had he not taken them. he would be out.
"the world is not around because of you
you know i'm not around because of you"
sounds like he's totally conceited and he just thinks he is the center of the universe. guys can get like this, when they are taking advantage of a girl.
"you've got a mouthful of diamonds
and a pocketful of secrets"
mouthful of diamonds could either mean: mouthful of drugs, mouthful of harmful words (diamonds being seen as sharp, like daggers) or a mouthful of promises that she knows he doesn't mean.
pocketful of secrets: literally a pocketful of drugs. maybe he is cheating on her or just in general lying to her and his pocket is chock full of secrets. you can't see what's in someone's pocket until they pull it out. you can see how large the pocket is, so she can see that there are a lot of secrets, but she doesn't know exactly what they are.
"i know you're never telling anyone
because the patterns they control your mind
these patterns take away my time
hello, goodbye"
these lines are absolutely brilliant and my favorite from the song. like anyone with an addiction, that said addiction is all the person thinks about. it consumes their mind, it controls them. it is too hard to reason with someone with an addiction. they cannot see why anything is wrong. it is nearly impossible to eradicate it from their mind. it is too stressful, time consuming etc. for the girl to try to cure this guy. you can tell she loves him and this is pained, but there is nothing wrong with her like there is with him...she is being smart and realizing that she does not need to burden her own life with his problems. she knows that he is bad for him and she is finally doing something about it.
"wasted, you tell the truth when you could have lied
troubles are on the rise cause you're in disguise"
the substance that the guy is most dependent on is actually his worst enemy. when he's wasted, he tells the girl all these things that he wouldn't normally. perhaps he explodes with harmful words, releasing his "mouthful of diamonds" and he reveals his "pocketful of secrets". troubles are on the rise because this is what happens when he is intoxicated, or in disguise.
"and if it isn't me then pack your bags and leave
i wish i could believe
the devils won't take you back out to the salty seas"
by her saying "if it isn't me" i think she either means that he has another lover, or that he is picking the drugs over her. she wishes she could believe that this is just a phase, or that he will change for her, but she's seen it enough times to know that he's not going to. the devils line is also brilliant.
awesome song. so meaningful. so glad my friend introduced it to me.
This song is about two different kinds of beings that once had a connection.She lives inthe light and speaks truth and he lives in the dark and constantly lies.She obviously cares about him ,and knows him more than he could ever imagine.

wake up you're getting high on your own supply
He is obviously an addict and i think that at the time the girl singing the song to him , was also caught up in that world trying to escape.She knows him well enought to know that he uses his own 'stuff.

oh baby you're still alive when you could've died
This guy is not only a drug user but he had a mental condition.
Because of his drug use and his mental condition , he should be dead.
the world is not round because of you
you know i'm not around because of you
He is obviously a narcissist who only craes about himself and using or so it seems.
I think he drove her away because she couldnt handle him ,in his mind they dont have much in common.I also think he is so involve in his own reality or so it seems that he dosent care much about anything , that a girl like her has to say , i mean she dosent wanna be part of it she wants to go.
you've got a mouthful of diamonds
Now This girl is convinced she knows who this guy really is , drugs or no drugs.I think this line means that everything that comes out of his mouth is what a diamond is .Diamonds are hard and stiff diamonds repel water but accept wax or grease, so i think this guy speaks lies and says filthy things to this girl , but her being a girl sees diamonds as something beautiful , i think it all depends on how you interprate it.This girl believes his lies or pretends to when she is infront of him.Because he is so direct .
Pocket fullof secret
I think this guy has so many secrets , that go beyond what it seems, I think he has all kinds of secrets, and he carries them in his pocket because he is a careless druggie.
i know you're never telling anyone
because the patterns they control your mind
I think that the patterns are everything not only his patterns with using but i think this girl thinks this guy is smarter ,than what he gives off to be , I think she is talking abou the patterns of the universe and how thats all he thinks about. Since shes not one of his kind those patterns take away her time, with him .
Hello.goodbye
Ibelieve their relationship was very short,yet meaningful or atleats life changing. She saw him and had to say goodbye because she knows that he knows , that he is the only one that can change himslef.
wasted you tell the truth when you could've lied
I think this guy tells her the truth about them when he is wasted,i also she might be slightly delusional or maybe they are just living in two different worlds.
troubles are on the rise cause you're in disguise
I think this girl is very wise soul, and she thinks he is magical like her maybe shes just idealzing him, but shes warning him , she thinks he is way more than the drugs .She knows he is disguising himself because of the patterns.He is lost in the dark.
and if it isn't me then pack your bags and leave
i wish i could believe
the devils won't take you back out to the salty seas
I think that at the time she was singing, this to him she was still lost and confuse in his dark world were she dosent belong.I think this girl things hse is his savior but he is not ready to go with her so ,He obviusly chooses other lovers and the drugs.
This songs is awesome , and this is just my personal version of what it means.
