He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.
Look in my eyes
I'm jaded now, whatever that means
By sharing these things
I rip my heart out
It's worth my time
Whatever that means, so
Hard to see up
My neck feels stiff until I wake up
The orange I choked
And back to my neck
It's worth my time
Whatever that means, so
Share with me
'Cause I need it right now
Let me see your insides
Or write me off
'Cause I'd rather starve now
If you won't open up
Give it to me
Give me all
Whatever you want
It's never been me
To want this much
From you I can see
Yeah
Share with me
'Cause I need it right now
Let me see your insides
Or write me off
'Cause I'd rather starve now
If you won't open up
You won't open up
Tears me up
Tears me up
Tears me up
Tears me up
Look in my eyes
I'm jaded now, whatever that means
By sharing these things
I rip my heart out
It's worth my time
Whatever that means, so
Share with me
'Cause I need it right now
Let me see your insides
Or write me off
'Cause I'd rather starve now
If you won't open up
Won't open up
(Share with me)
Yeah, it tears me up
('Cause I need it right now, let me see your insides)
Tears me up
(Or write me off)
And it tears me up
('Cause I'd rather starve now if you won't open up)
Tears me up
I'm jaded now, whatever that means
By sharing these things
I rip my heart out

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
This is definitely one of my favourite songs by The Used. As for what it's about, that's what I'm still pondering...I really gotta get their cd...NOW!! lol
