Lyric discussion by ASaltyDog 

I had read, before hearing this song, that it included many guest artists, including Elton John and Trent Reznor. I guess I just started off with the assumption that it was about friends in the music industry, both musicians and suits. However, it's really about the fans. They love you while you're hot, and give you tons of money. And it was never about having the most fans, at the beginning. It was about making the best music. So, we can hope for rain every day, if that means making great music, even if none of the fans love it. We never gave a shit about them anyhow.
