Tired Of Being Sorry

In short, I think the song is about a guy who is going through a lot of hardships with his life. Like he doesn't has friends or has some family problem? Maybe he is jobless and homeless and he had a girlfriend who supported him and gave him a home. Maybe his girlfriend must have worked day and night to support him and take care of him and he did nothing. Maybe he even mistreated her. But then he cheated on her (there's a lot of hints in the song that he cheated on her) and she left him all alone.

Here's my interpretation:

"I don't know why You want to follow me tonight When the rest of the world With whom I've crossed and I've quarreled

Let's me down so For a thousand reasons that I know To share forever the unrest With all the demons I possess Beneath the silver moon "

I think he is referring to the moon when he says "You want to follow me tonight". The moon seems to be the only thing that gives him company. The moon is probably a symbol of hope in this song. He mentioned that he had troubles with people ( When the rest of the world.... With whom I have crossed and quarreled). He also mentions that he is upset over many things because of having those problems with those people. ( Let's me down so...For a thousands reasons that I know). He also mentions how the moon is the only thing that gives him company. (To share forever the unrest... With the demons that I possess... Beneath the silver moon). By demons I think he means his pain, sadness and anger. The moon is something eternal I guess...so maybe he feels like he can share his pain (unrest) with the moon forever.

"Maybe you were right But baby I was lonely I don't want to fight I'm tired of being sorry "

I think this tells us that he cheated on a girl who meant a lot to him because she was the only one who didn't had a problem with him.... until he cheated on her. Perhaps in the beginning, he denied that he wasn't wrong at cheating on her but after she left him, he started to regret and he is feeling sorry. He doesn't likes to have a fight with her because she used to be someone who didn't had a problem with him and never fought with him.

"Chandler and Van Nuys With all the vampires and their brides We're all bloodless and blind And longing for a life Beyond the silver moon"

Chandler and Van Nuys is probably a name of a place I think. Maybe after she left him, he went there. Vampires are known to suck the life out of people so that they can continue living. Maybe the vampires he is referring to are people who hurt other people to be happy. By brides, I think he is referring to people who are the "vampire's" slaves. You know, it was (and probably still is) known that once a woman gets married, she becomes the property of her husband or something like that. I think he thinks he is a vampire because he hurts other people and because he doesn't has a "life". Maybe the people at Chandler and Van Nuys are also like him and so he says "We are all bloodless and blind." Bloodless meaning to be lifeless (or living an unhappy life) and blind probably means they can't see where they are going with their life and they can't see which is the right path. Longing for life beyond the silver moon could mean that they all wish their life was more meaningful I think.

"I'm standing in the street Crying out for you No one sees me But the silver moon "

Here, I think he tells us that the girl left him and he is in agony because of it. However, nobody is bothered by how regretful he is feeling. Probably because they knew he cheated on her and hurt her and they are more than happy about the fact that she left him. So "No one sees him". Only the silver moon keeps him company.

"So far away â?? so outer space I've trashed myself â?? I've lost my way I've got to get to you I've got to get to you"

Here, I think he is describing how much in pain he is that he can't understand anything. He probably started relying on drugs or alcohol to forget his pain. However, it seems that that isn't helping him as well. All he knows is that he needs her to stop feeling so sad and lost.

So I think this is a song about a very lonely guy who just can't seem to do anything good with his life. I guess.
