Well, tcpl, I guess you've never said anything and had it misinterpreted from a negative angle. It doens't exactly induce waves of pleasure through you. It can be difficult to change what people really think when something is interpreted wrong.

I think this song is about someone that basically looks around at their life sees the complete disarray and the potential for sinking further. They seem to have a rather disillusioned view of life, and have thoughts of what life would be like if they simply weren't a part of it. I think that the main feeling that is expressed here is a very angry sadness. I think that it begins with frustration followed by desparation (to come up with a solution).
