The Lonely 1 Lyrics

It seems very ironic to me. The fan is commenting on how the frontman gets everyone reaching for his autograph and the band is behind him, people are cheering, his performance is great, but then the fan, who actually is lonely, goes home and plays a song in which the frontman deplores his loneliness. But the way its sang it seems like there's no ill will between the fan and frontman. I guess even though the fan realizes the frontman isn't really lonely, he doesn't care and just wants the musical equivalent to what he's feeling. This is a great song either way.
