This to me is about those years following the break up of a relationship that really, and truly changed you - you knew the person inside out, and feel an immense hole in your chest whenever you think of them. I'm not entirely convinced with the genuineness of the line "I wish nothing but the best for you too", it seems to be sung with such unnerving bitterness and heartache, and that would link to turning up, uninvited to let them know that you still love them, and that for you, it really isn't over.
In my opinion, this song comes from a vulnerable place; right at that moment when you find out that your ex has moved on, and you haven't. You begin to question why they have moved on, and why you are unable to, and get the real and painful feeling that actually you still love them.
It's beautiful, unnerving and bitter. Like break ups are.
