It's about liking someone from afar who wears blinders, who hasn't ever really seen you even though they've passed you in the hall (at school?) hundreds of times. He's saying he wants this girl to notice him, and that he will muster all of the confidence he has in order to finally tell her how he feels. Telling your crush how you feel is thrilling and scary, like a cannonball into the water. And he's right, you always want what you can't have, but he's going to try to get the girl anyway. I think most people can relate.
