In the 1980s, sunglasses were a common fashion for people who wanted to adopt a "tough guy" persona (note all the cop shows from that era -- Simon & Simon, Miami Vice, etc. -- where the lead characters wore shades). So I think this song is about a guy who wears shades as a way of hiding his insecurity after learning that his girlfriend is cheating on him. He's trying to pretend that he's a "tough guy" to hide the fact that his girlfriend's affair is disturbing him.
Maybe I know her better, but not point blank
Everybody is dancing all around me
Pierced right through me, like a big tool
Looking at the pale morningstones
Don't fit here, the skin is too small
Dress up and be the next day's star
Asking sweet, but the elders always laughing
Doesn't god love her
But she actually enjoyed him
Morning arguments flying right at me
Please say it again, and I'll push you off that cliff
Walked back to my home just to find you all done
Everybody is dancing all around me
Pierced right through me, like a big tool
Looking at the pale morningstones
Don't fit here, the skin is too small
Dress up and be the next day's star
Asking sweet, but the elders always laughing
Doesn't god love her
But she actually enjoyed him
Morning arguments flying right at me
Please say it again, and I'll push you off that cliff
Walked back to my home just to find you all done
