I was in a situation with a girl who was depressed to an extreme. She would tell me constantly that I was the one with the problems because I cared about her, and she told me she didn't want me to care. Now, I can't say things went well, what ended up happening was I found out that she was purposely trying to get me to hate her because she didn't believe she should be cared about. She was self destructive, but blamed me for her destruction, because I cared and wanted to help, even when she told me that she could make it on her own...because...as U2 has said, "Sometimes you can make it on your own." Anyways, when I was in this situation, this song really helped me, because I felt that Eddie was talking specifically about me and what was happening. In my opinion it's about how he's struggling to help a person who doesn't want him there,"Fuck me if I care, but I'm not leaving here." I'd also like to say that he's not saying from me...he's saying "fuck me". I think he's showing his anger with the situation, and his anger that he can't help this person that matters so much to him. I can relate completely, and this song will always be one of my all time favorites.
