I think this song is about a breakup where the singer is soo madly in love he/she cant handle it. They dont feel like they can ever be "back to good".

"
It's nothing, it's so normal you
Just stand there I could say so much
But I don't go there cuz I don't want to
I was thinking if you were lonely
Maybe we could leave here and no one would know
At least not to the point that we would think so
"
this first part is when he is at a bar. Hes thinking about how normal it is for someone...
"

"
this first part is when he is at a bar. Hes thinking about how normal it is for someone who is hurt to be at a bar. He's talking to a girl and he wants to tell her how he feels, but decides its better left unsaid. He starts thinking that maybe if he takes her home, he can replace the feeling of hurt with love again. Then he is assuring himself that his past lover wont know about it. He feels like he is cheating on her
"
Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking about
Somebody else
It's best if we all keep it under our heads
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
But I'm lonely now, and I don't know how
To get it back to good
"
Here he is pointing out that he believes everyone at the bar is there for the same reason he is, because they are lonely. But while your there you dont let that feeling out, so you keep it under your head. Basically he's saying you dont speak about being lonely, you act happy. Then he starts doubting that anyone could hurt as bad as he is. He says he is lonely and he has no idea how to "get back to good".
"
This don't mean that, you own me
This ain't no good, in fact it's phony as hell
But things worked out just like you wanted too
If you see me out you don't know me
Try to turn your head, try to give me some room
To figure out just what I'm going to do
"
Now he is speaking to his ex lover. He is telling her that just because he feels so awful and lonely, she doesnt own him. Then hes saying that the bar scene was just a coverup. He doesnt really want to be there, and the happiness people are putting on, is phoney. Then he says if you see me, dont approach me. I needs some space to try and figure this out.
"
And everyone here, hates everyone here for doing just like
They do
It's best if we all keep this quiet instead
And I couldn't tell, why everyone here was doing me like
They do
But I'm sorry now, and I don't know how
To get it back to good
"
I think at this point hes starting to realize there are more people at the bar that are cheating than anything else. And he hates that they are there for that reason. I think he reveals in this part that his lover cheated on him. That is why he doesnt know how to get it back to good. He can either take her back and maybe get past the problem but he isnt sure.
"
Everyone here, is wondering what it's like to be with
Somebody else
Everyone here's to blame, everyone here
Gets caught up in the pleasure of the pain, everyone hides
Shades of shame, but looking inside we're the same, we're
The same
And we're all grown now, but we don't know how
To get it back to good
"
I think he starts putting pieces together and realizes that we all have a curiousity about being with someone else. No matter how much you love your partner, there is always that feeling when a hot girl/guy walks in that you may have alittle fantasy about them.
"
Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking 'bout
Somebody else
It's best if we all keep this under our heads
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
But it's over now, and I don't know how, it's over now
There's no getting back to good
"
Here he realizes that she went to far. Once it goes from fantasy to reality the relationship is over. There is no way to get back to the way it was before.
Just my opinion. This is one of my favorite songs ever
I love this song. It says so much about me and a group of my friends. It is just awesome.
