Although the main part of the meaning is expressed well in the lyrics in my opinion this song’s meaning and literal translation is…
This girl got into some bad stuff, may it be drugs or alcohol, and her boyfriend does not accept it very well. (“Carved earth, cold Hiding from you in this skin So old”) She tries to tell him that she can come clean and people know that she can. But he doesn’t know. (“Everyone-everyone knows It’s, me”) She asks him if/when she recovers if you’ll stay with me. (“And if I recover Will you be my comfort?”) Or the alternative, they break up… You choose. (“Or it can be over Or we can just leave it here So pick any number Choose any color I've got the answer Open the envelope”) Because he loves her he decides to stay, but she knows that he feels that he doesn’t know her anymore so she asks him again (“I'll give you one more chance To say we can change or part ways you take what And you need And you don't need me”) I don’t want to know what blow by blow means… She knows that however he appears to be that he fears an answer (“Honest in every way I know You appear To face a decision I know you fear”) And so it is basically about a girl who gets caught up ion some bad things, and it is the boy’s decision if they break up or not.
