I definitely have to agree that this is about the whole party scene. :3 The singer keeps promising that he'll never drink again and he'll never go to another one of these parties, but he keeps doing it anyways.

He's counting on his friends to get him to a safe place to pass out and the like, but they're getting tired of taking care of him time and time again.

So, he gets frustrated. Everyone knows that if he goes to these parties and drinks, it's going to end up badly-- so why the hell doesn't anyone stop him?!

It switches into the band scene. Maybe they're kind of an amateur band, but the lead singer is already immersing himself so much in the high life that they can barely practice, so the band is packing up and heading for the exit.

Which leads, of course, to stress, so he drinks more! How is he supposed to know?!

I heaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaart this song. @_@ One of my favourites. n3n
