Cover art for Standard Lines lyrics by Dashboard Confessional

I love how all my posts are gone, since songmeanings, switched servers. anyway. to me, this song like many of dashboard's is about getting over a relationship with someone. his "new diet" is like his life without that person, and how hard it is for him to let go, the smallest things remind him of the one he lost, but he knows that he won't get them back, and has to deal with that.

The meaning of this song has always been pretty transparent to me, and I've always loved that line, but for some treason I didn't get that line until you said it.
