The song isn't about blow jobs. Just because she says "on her knees" doesn't mean it's about sex. It means the girl fell for a boy and was willing to do anything for him, and she ends up hurt, and the guy tries to help (thus the frozen strawberries) but it doesn't work (all frozen things unfreeze), and is left with a mark (him tasting like strawberries). They both end up hurt (thus the name, bruises). Why are people so quick to turn nice songs into sex sex sex?! Gah.

I agree with you that this song is about more than sex. Like you said, it's about a broken relationship. However, there are some undeniably sexual references in this video, such as the repeating images of entwined lovers on the screens and the entire last forty seconds of the video. It's not PRIMARILY about sex, but it seems to me that sex is involved in some capacity.

Every time a girl gives me a blow job, I think of this song now.

You know how when you buy new MP3 players, some of them have like 5 free songs? Yeah, this was one of those free songs on the MP3 player I got when I was 9. I still love it to this day.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

It might be a song about broken hearts... It might be a song about fellatio (after all, it is absolutely normal to perform oral sex for someone you love)...

Only the guy who wrote the song can tell for sure its real meaning.

sex is nice... what's wrong with blow jobs! Also they are clearly fantasizing/reminiscing on each other, writhing naked under the sheets, so sex, sex, sex!
