This song is about unrequited love - a universal feeling. Jack's song hints towards th story of a guy who loves a woman very much, but his approaches are denied again and again. He believes that both of them are meant to be together and obviously she innitially showed signs and dropped hints that made this belief stronger which is evident from the lines " You keep building me up". However she also "keeps shooting him down" which leaves him confused, embarrassed and hurt. He finally realises that all his sacrifices are not worth it and sheis just playing him for a fool. He makes up his mind to leave it all behind and move on since he cant always be waiting on her!

For all of you who feel this way right now I suggest you do the same and move on! Because if its meant to be then it wouldn't be so hard. Love should be smooth and easy for you to revel in it. It can be hard to get over him/her but remember about 98% of people have this feeling atleast once in their entire lifetime! So lick your wounds and walk away! =)
