Death Cab for Cutie – You Are a Tourist Lyrics 13 years ago
I believe this song is about how to move on from a painful situation.

Some people who are not fortunate enough to be loved might have this constant pain in the heart to belong to someone. Worse still, if the girl/guy who you so deeply love turns you down and holds you for some mistake you did and you will always be thinking in your mind where you went wrong. You would see your good things as bad.

So when your friends or people you love alienate you (tourist in your own town), Ben says just move on because there are so many others who might want you (other places you can call home).

Overall just let the yearning for love grow and find someone who will love you.
