In my humble opinion, this song is about how easy it is to be whoever you want to be, and not in the most positive light. With a simple change of clothing, you can be percieved as an entirely different person. One outfit can change your apperance, and how others think of you. "it's a race to be noticed and it's leaving us numb" and "with all of our fashion we're still incomplete" speaks that, no matter what our exteriors show, there's a deeper part of us that is being ignored. There's a new way to be someone, all you have to do is ignore who you were before.
