this is a song about the mistakes young people make (impulsiveness, drinking, relationships) and the lonliness they often feel as a result of their mistakes. it's about taking things for granted, about how short term plans that seem like the answer to all our problems often just cause us to end up feeling stupid and cause further setbacks.
but since nobody ever listens, almost everybody does some really dumb, regrettable stuff between the ages of 18-25 that causes a lot of damage in their lives. people get hurt, they lose relationships, etc.

this song is an ode to that.
