This song is definitely about how a kid feels when they are bullied. "All the angels i know put concrete in my veins" is describing how sometimes the people close to you cannot help make the pain go away. "I'd always walk home alone so i became lifeless just like my telephone" is describing how a person being bullied feels like they are on the outside looking in and just watching their life go by instead of living it. Also, you truly feel like you have nothing to lose after a while. "I'd have to check my mirror to see if i'm still here" is referring to the outside looking in feeling such as above. The days also never seem to change. The "Teach us that it's just a phase" is a reference to how people around you justify it. Teacher's will say you are being over sensitive, parents will hope it just goes away, and the bullies parents will say that their kid would never do that. Finally the "And i just died today" part describes perfectly how you feel at the end of every day or it can mean the person killed themselves. That's what i think. BTW, i've seen Billy Talent in concert and this song rocks live.
True. High sensitivity is a trait, which means that it doesn't disappear. When teachers say you're oversensitive, that's exactly what you are and there's not a thing you can do about the trait itself.

Obviously, unfortunately, much of Western culture see this as a bad thing, while countries like China see this as a good thing. The trick is to disassociate yourself from others, accept who you are, realize that since no one understood you, no one really knew you. Also, sensitive people are also unusually smart and creative.
