If you listen to this song closely enough, digging out the meaning behind it becomes shockingly easy. To put it in the most simplest terms: cheating. Before I further explain, I'd like to compliment the fact that the video breaks the standards of men always cheating on women and gives us, for once, a woman cheating on a man. Now, onto the meaning of the song: a man and a woman (husband and wife, probably) are deeply in love. Slowly but surely, they begin to fall out of love, the woman detaching herself first. Eventually (towards the video's end) the man finds his wife with another man. "My love for you was bulletproof, but you're the one who shot me," is stating that they had impenetrable love, and when it ended, it was the woman's fault. The end of the song is likely after the man has packed his bags and left the woman, leaving her nothing more than a note: "By the time you're hearing this, I'll already be gone" or even a recording.
