"Anderson Mesa" - a place in Arizona where the band come from
"Don't leave without intentions, don't leave without intentions. My mind's made up, make my own decision.
Don't leave without intentions of ever coming back" - a friend has made up their mind that they're leaving. He wants whatever his friend wants to make them happy, but pleads with them to return and not forget about him.
"Vacation, you'd take them if you wanted you'd ask them. Vacation, you'd take them if you wanted you'd ask them. Vacation, you'd take them if you wanted" - it isn't a case of just wanting to be away, because if they wanted just to go away they'd take a vacation. They wants to be away for a long time, leaving this place behind.
"Alone I'm outside, red sky, I wait there, snowfall above me, so new...yet fading" - He obviously hasn't known the person for as long as he'd like to, as he waits for them knowing that this will be one of their last times together.
"Run around or jump the fence, graveyard" - he can either believe they will be together again so or admit to himself that the friendship is as good as dead (jump the fence, graveyard). The friend doesn't seem as concerned as he is.
um...ok...I think it works like this:
