The protagonist in these lyrics is feeling lost and scared as the night disappears. They hold their breath and try to push away their own problems. They are consumed by their own negative thoughts and feelings. Despite appearing calm and composed on the outside, they are actually poisoning themselves on the inside. They try to stay calm as everything around them crashes down. If someone is looking for someone to save them or something to believe in, the protagonist is saying that they are also in need of saving and searching for meaning. They don't want the person to give up quietly. The protagonist feels like they are disappearing and losing themselves in their own personal hell.
