If you know Weezer, and Rivers especially, it is unlikely that he is screwing over a girl and haunting her every day. HE is the one being haunted as always. BUT instead of being direct and obviously painful by saying "YOU are going to haunt ME every day" he reverses the roles. If you change every I to you and You to Me the meaning of the song is apparant.
Rivers tries to get into the mind of the girl who can walk away so coldly without letting him have his say. "Walkin on my own, leaving you behind" (It is actually him being left behind)
But he is also subtly brutal calling her insane... "You were just a toy, I am just insane"
So it's actually the girl walking away as always with weezer. But what a beautiful painful way to twist the song.
