Things obviously didn’t end well with a woman he was romantically involved with. His lyrics allude to the fact that she seemingly blocked him to move on to a relationship with someone else. He describes the fact that he rejected other women while he focused on this one particular person.

However, now this woman has come back around and it's seemingly too little too late. He doesn't want to be strung along anymore and now he's the one rejecting her. He says he would hate himself if he was in her shoes — feeling regretful about risking their relationship for another man.
