    Amazing song, I guess it comes from a disappointment view or an emotional exhaustion. He says he doesn't believes in miracles anymore, that means he did it in the past, so now when he sees the reality he begins to doubt about everything he did and believed. I think there's sarcasm in some lines, he says everything he wrote and all the tears actually doesn't mean that much to him, but then think about the line: "When I said that I don't care it really means my engine's breaking down"; so when he says: "Never meant that much to me", in fact he is confessing the opposite.
