The artist is is going through an identity crisis while in a relationship with someone. Within the relationship the artist has to be someone other than who he really wants to be and is “finally waking up” to the fact that he can’t be that person in the relationship.

[Verse 1]
Finally waking up inside
A void where I can hear the noise
Of someone similar to you
I'm still a little tired
But I can try
To muster up a kind of a style
That in a way might calm the room
But you
Can point me out when I am down
And feeling like a pawn inside
A game where I don't know the rules
Oh, we're making love and carving out
A different road to take away
But I would never make you choose
[Bridge]
Make you choose
Make you choose
Make you choose
Make you choose
[Verse 2]
You take a walk and try to talk
Yourself into a kind of space
Where you can start to feel the ground
Trying to find a face
Where you can place a version of yourself
You thought that you'd be living downtown
And all your friends are making money
You feel like you're not even making sense
All you can do is find some restless souls
To lay your head and try to mend
[Chorus]
But it all comes down to what (All comes down to)
You're willing to give up (Willing to give)
[Interlude]
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
(I was thinking I could be anyone)
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
[Verse 3]
Spirit of the street come to me
Let him breath, let him feel
'til he's had his fill
Oh let me wash away the very nature
Of my passions and my pleasures
Let me bend the will
And Jesus Christ
Let it end let it die
Let me lay in her arms
'til the walls cave in
Oh, finally waking up
But I'm alone
And I am waiting for
Something real to begin
[Chorus]
But it all comes down to what (All comes down to)
You're willing to give up (Willing to give)
[Outro]
It all comes down to what
You're willing to give up
It all comes down to what
You're willing to give up
