my fav. song on the album- i think def. the best lyrically.
I think this song is about depression and just the boredom and uselessness one feels if depressed. Craig isn't exactly mentally stable; i think "I'm tired of feelin sick and useless/then speakin every other way" shows how he's once tried to hide this. It seems like he's so bored out of his mind he's willing to do anything to distract himself.
The second stanza is about his disillusionment with life e.g. "the secret garden." The chorus is kinda hopeful, saying that he was thinking negatively of his future "taken by the shadows/although we couldn't see that far" but he doesn't need dramatic change or material possessions to make him happy. He knows he'll be fine in the end.
