No.
What he meant was "I have to leave the game TO battle my demons and addictions BECAUSE my family needs me."

That's not the way he presents the case in the song. HE'S A LIAR! LIAR!
Norway, blah, blah, murder, blah, blah, blood.

He's not lying, he's just giving us a more pleasant, convenient version of the truth.

This song made me cry a long time ago :'(

I think that after listening to the song just know I'm gonna leave and write an emotional song that's not too lyrically challenging like this one.

But WIG is the best emotional Em song right next to Beautiful. Touches me everytime i hear this masterpiece.

I think Rock Bottom and If I Had are much more emotional than these two. Prefer everything about them - they just sound much less cliche to me.

They may be more lyrical and original than those two, but they definitely don't paint as vivid a picture.
Beautiful and When are so much more tormented and chilling.
