Oh ho, ho. A good song.

The meaning is someone who is in love with another. He's slowly being forgotten and written off by the girl he loved. He was so emotionally invested in a girl, and it has ruined him, because he thought she was perfect, and now he's covering up how devastated he is.

The last part is a bit iffy. He's either saying that the one he loved has become something worse than he could imagine and he tells them how much it has hurt him, or he's saying that he's being changed from this experience and can't give a smile and doesn't give a damn.

This band is better than a lot of them.
