The song's main point, "when a boy writes off the world it's done with sloppy misspelled words if a girl writes off the world it's done in cursive" The meaning I believe can mean to give up on life in general, and/or about suicide, but the interpretation of contrast between males/females, as society when we hear, wether discovered from family/friends/news we as an average whole tend to "write-off" or not emotonally attach the tradgedy when it comes to male specific failures/suicide because we perceive men as being strong willed, no matter the task or situation, and tend to see them as weak or justify in our minds of the causes leading to the outcome; When we hear or know about female suicides we tie more emotional value to the person/incident, it becomes more of a feeling than a presented fact, and people tend to overlook what led up to and caused the final event, and tend to express/feel the emotional loss/care more. |
