Ok, just my thoughts on this one:

She doesn't really care about the basics of life or death, she is tired of being held down by rules and laws of life itself. She doesn't want his heart, it leaves her cold, relationship of course. Then I think Cobehn is right on the rest of it.

I think its a song about wanting to break away from relationships, she doesn't need it anymore. But it keeps pulling her back, despite her will.

"One bright moment, is all I ask" could be talking about a final hurrah before its all said and done. She wants to live her life focused on the spiritual aspect and wants one true moment where everything makes sense and to know that her life wasn't meaningless. "History keeps pulling me down" is back to the fact that she wants to be focused on her spiritual life and wants that to make sense in the end but her past of getting tangled up in relationships always tries to get in the way.

Just what I think, but combine what Cobehn and I said and I think you'll get the jist of what we're saying anyway.
