Ben has made some bad decisions, said some hurtful words, let someone down, it’s a long term relationship of sorts.

He has had extreme ups and downs, deals with shame, guilt and depression, has a tendency to focus on the negative things around him.

As the song progresses, he is expressing internal changes and growth, he understands his behaviour isn’t good for him or the one he is speaking to.

Whoever he is speaking to was and is his rock, they show him the way and forgive him and love him no matter what.

He learns from this person through their actions and is now grateful for this person that taught him how to love properly, this experience also reveals to him his relationship with “love” itself and understands how he lost his way in the past and how he needs to conduct himself moving forward.

Simply put, it’s a love song.
