i see it more as this ( bear in mind its my opinion):

we all see ourselves in different ways...ways in which we would like people to see us but they don't always see us as that. you meet people, they all sort of see you as a joke and no matter how hard you try to do things to prove otherwise that you are something stronger and more meaningful...you just can't. story of my life perhaps..but its what i get out of the song.
