The song is a suicide attempt:
"you won't cry for my absence, I know"
"and if I bleed, I'll bleed"
The character states very clearly that they are a sacrifice ("I'm the sacrifice"), and what happens to a sacrifice???
Whoever they are talking to - in my opinion, a parent - has been neglectful and it seems the protagonist has merely faded into the background of their life.
Even the pleas - "please, please forgive me" - are a reference to the suicide. Many consider suicide to be a sin, a big one at that, and the protagonist feels the need to apologize for their actions. Just the fact that they feel they should apologize hints at the sense of worthlessness this person feels - a common cause for suicide.
