"i don't care if you leave or stay
but you might as well split
because it's not the same as it was
when we said our last goodbye
and if you want the truth: i was hoping one of us would pass away
because it'd be much easier then
we would all get together and think about when
we were young we were dumb we were numb but in love
and i'm done so i'm sending out this letter today"
From this part of the song you can tell that its about knowing that your going to lose someone you love.
Also, from the parts "we are the few that won't say nothing right
we are the footsteps fading into the night
nobody cares and nobody stares with such conviction and i say:
i never wanted this, no one ever wanted this
but they gave it to you so you might as well be proud of it"
I think its coming from the voice of the person who lost the love. For all you people out there who have gotten you heart broken, you know how it feels, you just want to disappear. Which would explain the "we are the footsteps fading into the night
" part. Just kinda fading away. And the "we are the few that won't say nothing right" means you said the wrong things, and now here you are. "i never wanted this, no one ever wanted this
but they gave it to you so you might as well be proud of it "
Nobody wants their heart broken. But you cant do anything about it, so just be proud of it.
All in all, Great song, i HIGHLY recommend getting this album
