    My interpretation of this song is that the fall of Babylon is compared to that of a failing relationship, feeling like both parties tried so hard to please the other that it just ended in never being happy. It also talks about loving someone so much you just don't know when to quit, like you are internally conflicted about whether it's easier to stay or easier to go.
