This is the end. Jesus of Suburbia returned home. Who knows what he is going to do with the rest of his life. That's not important. This story is about him growing up (and seeing the problems with the world along the way).
He is trying to forget Whatshername. He burned her photographs, he crossed out her name. But he can't really forget her. He still remembers her face, and even dreamed that he met her again. But in reality she is gone forever. All he has is his memories of her, and his memories of his journey.
A good song. I pretty sad, especially combined with the album. The album doesn't have a happy ending, which makes it much more powerful. At the begining, the album looks political. It has a political-sounding title. It has politcal singles (with some political videos). But in reality, that's only a small part of the story. The story is Jesus of Suburbia growing up. It's a powerful story, that is something you would never expect from Green Day. Green Day may have created the pop-punk mold, but they're doing what they can to break it.
