Haven't listened to this song for... I don't even want to think about how long it's been.
Where he says "I'd like to believe this nervousness will pass" makes me think of one of those relationships, where you basically feel like the other person is staying with you out of obligation, and you feel that tension in their tone, the brittleness of their mood. The feeling that every little thing you do or say is another nail in the coffin. The nervousness like they're just looking for a way out, a reason to dump you.
You hope the nervousness will pass. You hope it's just a bad mood, or a rough patch in life. Sometimes it is, and things getter... But sometimes... well, the rest of the song has that down too :(

You are so right in your first paragraph. finally he was nervous because I was staying not out of obligation but control. I felt I had to take all of his baggage and give beyond what is humanly possible for him to love me. When I raised the bar a little for myself I realized he loved me because of what I did for him. He took advantage of my kindness and love. I was stupid for way to long. Made excuses for way to long, "all the stones he threw made a wall"
