The man has pseudo-friends who constantly criticize his actions. They moralize him, "teach" him and advise him to make a significant change in his life, because the way he is and what he does is not what they say it should be. They may find his life lame or immoral. They hold themselves up as role models. The man replies that he will make his own choices and decisions and he does not agree to unconditionally make himself under the influence of questionable quality advice. He justifies this by saying that there is always someone for whom he will be important, no matter what he does and no matter what he is. Although it is not said directly, I read it as meaning that he will always be important to himself in every way and he will always have his own support.
"Everyone is different and maybe that's a good thing, but you exceeded that mark 1000 times" - I remember very well how sad the words I once heard (from my peers and it was in negative context) at school made me feel.
Fly inside
Feel me dealing
Holding on to a story just told
About a man who's the life of a funeral
Grabbing on to a woman who's soul
He just stole for a dream he don't believe in
Now she sits and she yells for a smile
"Don't let the sun make me feel lonely"
Oh let me in let me in let me in
Is it me
Or is it honey
We all seem to hold
To Something we don't see
Is He here
Is He there
Where does He live
Some people say in the pull of a heartbeat
Some people say in the mind of a stranger
I can't explain what it is I believe in
So take your heart take your mind and escape
Is it me
Or is it honey
Is it me
Or is it honey
Is it me trying to raise your little children
Is it me trying to take your little flame
Why are you trying to steal my judgement day away
Let me scream let me scream let me scream
Don't take it away
Another day in the arms of the real thing
Another day in the eyes of a fool
I called today just to make me feel hopeless
Lie to me and I'll try to believe
Feel me dealing
Holding on to a story just told
About a man who's the life of a funeral
Grabbing on to a woman who's soul
He just stole for a dream he don't believe in
Now she sits and she yells for a smile
"Don't let the sun make me feel lonely"
Oh let me in let me in let me in
Is it me
Or is it honey
We all seem to hold
To Something we don't see
Is He here
Is He there
Where does He live
Some people say in the pull of a heartbeat
Some people say in the mind of a stranger
I can't explain what it is I believe in
So take your heart take your mind and escape
Is it me
Or is it honey
Is it me
Or is it honey
Is it me trying to raise your little children
Is it me trying to take your little flame
Why are you trying to steal my judgement day away
Let me scream let me scream let me scream
Don't take it away
Another day in the arms of the real thing
Another day in the eyes of a fool
I called today just to make me feel hopeless
Lie to me and I'll try to believe
