Yes, the lyrics are a tad off. And the breaks shown above aren't as they appear in the song. It's quite a shame.. To me, this song is about people who take no initiative to make life worthwhile. They hide themselves from the search for happiness, taking up interest in those things that don't matter one bit. Only when those pointless interests expire, when they are forced to look elsewhere, will they see what they should have been confronting all this time.
