Say, yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time
Don't they know that you're full of pain already?
Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time
Decadence isn't easy, is it?
Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time
Don't they know that you're full of pain already?
Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time
Decadence isn't easy
Then you slowly recall all your mind
Why your soul's gone cold
And all hope has run dry
Dead inside
Never enough to forget
That you're one of the lonely
Slowly recall all your mind

And all hope has run dry
Dead inside
Never enough to forget
That you're one of the lonely
Slowly recall all your mind
If I scare you now
Don't run from me
I've been hiding my pain, you see
Said if I scare you now
Don't run from me
I've been hiding my pain, you see
Slowly recall all your mind
Why your soul's gone cold
And all hope has run dry
Dead inside
Never enough to forget
That you're one of the lonely
Slowly recall all your mind

Um, I don't think it's about emos, just because of the meaning of the word "decadence" (according to Wikipedia, "a lack of moral and intellectual discipline").
I'm pretty sure when he says "Yes, they know that you've hurt yourself another time / don't they know that you're full of pain already," what he means is that everyone else realizes what you're doing to yourself, but you don't. You may feel the hurt you're causing yourself, but you don't know why until he reveals the cause (decadence) by asking, "Decadence isn't easy, is it?"
This song seems to be about someone who strives for attention and desires everyone's pity, making it impossible for him or her to get over what it is that's overbearing them because they keep reliving it.
This song reminds me of a friend of mine. She's had a fairly hard life and she has done things to hurt herself (such as cutting) to escape pain. However, in public she acts happy and friendly towards other people and know one seems to realize that "she is full of pain everyday."
I feel for your friend, i've been doing the same ever since i was 15 years old ( im 20 now). People always see me as this happy friendly guy who's fun and filled with energy. But there are so many times when i just want to explode in rage, hurt somebody or even myself, lately i starting to feel like i cant take it anymore, im starting to loose my mind you know... Pretty soon there's no return for me, im going to loose it and hopefully, when i loose it, it'll be on myself and noone else.

Take care of your...
Take care of your friend, make sure she's ok before it's too late.
A quote from Dave, "This song is about how difficult it is to live a decadent lifestyle, the effect it has on you and what it does to your soul."
Corrected lyrics: Yes, they know, that you've hurt yourself another time/ don't they know that you're full of pain already?/ yes, they know, that you've hurt yourself another time/ decadence isn't easy/ is it?/ then you slowly recall all your mind/ why your soul's gone cold, and all hope has run dry/ dead inside. never enough to forget, that you're one of the lonely/ slowly recall all your mind/ if I scare you now, don't run from me/ I've been hiding my pain, you see.
Its about living a decadant lifestyle and the effects it has on your soul.
Living the high life just to fill a hole in your life... when all it does is worsen your situation.
Its about someone who has neglected themselves all there lives. and it effects everyone around them, and nobodys there to listen when they finally decide to open up "if i scare you now, don't run from me, ive been hiding my pain, you see?"
Also, its Then you slowly recall on your mind
and its hurt youself not blame youself
( sorry to spam)
When it mentions "Decadence isn't easy, is it?", it sounds like the person has gone through the same thing, and it's as if he is saying, "Welcome to my world". It's pretty much like, "Don't drag yourself down any farther when you're already gone".
