Parts of this song remind me of 'Lazarus' and how Matt wrote about the dying Emocore scene.
'So disgusted with it
And you took your sweet time
So lets get out of this town
So lets get out of this town
Start this day all over and over again'
This bit sums up his ideals on the scene these days, being swamped by below-par scenesters, and how the band have tried to re-invent the music and escape 'emo' before it dies out, as does this section :
'Just like the good old days
You wipe the stains from off your face
And forget her, just forget her'
Leaving the old scene behind, forgetting it and moving on. The 'Too much of a good thing' line could also apply to this. Matt and the band love the genre, but these days it is overplayed and overtly fashionable.
The song could also refer to the above ideas of suicide, but this could be one of the other metaphors going on.
