Heres how I take it. He is far away from this girl who I’m guessing he was dating or a girl who he really loved a lot. Part of him wants to go visit her wherever she is but the other part of him doesn’t want to go because he feels like he would be getting in the way of her time with other guys and all of her one night stands. She probably drinks a lot (doing tequila shots) and I’m unsure of the reason as to why she drinks. He loves this girl and his love for her wasn’t enough…she wanted something more. The part where it says “while you’re licking salt off of each other”…since there is salt in your skin… probably means when this girl and some other guy are making out or just doing what lovers do, he is wishing and throwing salt over his shoulder. Throwing salt over your shoulder is a superstition and for good luck. He hopes she gets sores on her lips…maybe from kissing so many different guys so then it will burn when she drinks. When she wakes up tomorrow with a massive hangover, he doesn’t want her to call him. Tonight he is going to go out with his guy friends to try to get her off of his mind. I think the rest of the song is pretty self explanatory as is the whole song but people asked for interpretations so here ya go.
