Hey Ian, welcome to the forums!
 
Your song is nice and progresses along well. The synth "mute" sound you have in there may be better outside of the center, IMO. I'd also like just a little more low end on the kick, though I can hear the bass okay.
 
Out of curiosity, is this a band or are you playing all the instruments yourself?
 
Regards,
Dan

I finally got to spend some time in the studio today and taking your advise I remixed this song pushing the muted synth fully to the right and beefing up the kick. I also add some low freq to the entire mix. I am really happy with it and I think it has lifted the emotion as Kevinwal also mentioned. Thanks guys I appreciate it.

Sounds pretty good here.   It's got a bit of an Oasis vibe to me, especially the chorus, but with a bigger arrangement. 
 
Just one thought...   during the verses it sounds like you're holding the bass note once per change, maybe try matching up the bass to the kick so that they play the same rhythm together?  Could sound cool and maybe add a little drive.    

I like this song! Welcome to the forums!!!  Nothing I can add to what's already been said. Thanks for the post!

This is a hooky song right here.  You have that ear, I can tell.  Tastefully executed and perfect lyrical theme for it too.  And your voice is perfect for it. 
 
My only critique would be that the rhythm and cadence of the lyrics were compromised from time to time for a simpler line.  Felt kind of awkward here or there, but it's hair splitting, I admit. 

All sounding good to me Ian,
 
You have a wide range of styles on your soundcloud page... Trance and Techno too! Nice
