We are born sinners, and when we are sinners, we are programed to operate according to our sin. When we have a "piece" taken away (an old sinful habit), we begin to understand that we are not made to be sinners. But we all struggle to release our sins, sin is fun. We enjoy sin. Through the struggle of following Jesus and abandoning our sin is what helps us find rest.
"This deception I called love" basically means that we can love anything and give ourselves to anything. If it's not Jesus, we decieve ourselves and call it love.

I really like the line "Take it back, this is a new day." It shows that when we repent of past sins, we are clean in the blood of Jesus. We can choose not to be slaves anymore. "Take it back" is saying to the sinful desires, "No, I don't need that."
The whole song rings with the vanity of the worldy things. It's beautiful. Only in God we can fully have our desires met.
