This time imperfect by AFI?

Deep deep song, most don't understand the meaning to. It begins with "I cannot leave here I cannot stay, forever haunted more than afraid. Asphyxiate on words I would say, i'm drawn to a blackened sky as I turn blue." I tihnk this symbolizes him in a relationship in which his significant other had died. He is choking on what he wants to say to express his sorrys, and can't say them. Thus turning Blue and being drawn to a blackened sky which symbolizes him in a really hurt state. The chorus is "There are no flowers, no not this time, there'll be no angels gracing the lines, just these dark words I find. I'd show a smile, but i'm too weak, i'd share with you could I only speak just how much this hurts me." He is now mourning over her death, explaining he cannot offer flowers to fix it, and that the Angels aren't going to come for him next any time soon. Now once again, he's talking to God about how much he's hurt over the loss, saying that he can't even speak, he's weak, and deeply hurt God took her. The song then proceeds to talk about how he no longer feels real anymore, and how he is make believe in the eyes of God. And then wishes his lost one would appear and make him real. Then the chorus hits again. Same meaning. He then talks to God about how much the loss Haunts him by cutting into his day and sinking into his dreams, and proceeds to say God doesn't care he's haunted all. Then once again the chorus. But it ends with "Just how much you." Once again directed toward God hurting him. This song can have 2 meanings, a 1 on 1 bad relationship and Davey singing to her. Or a 1 on 1 death relationship and Davey singing to God. Either way works.
