This song to me means that anyone else's pain, desperation, loneliness is easy to bear. The speed of the song is breezy an dlusty and happy. The pretty 1970s harmonies sound a bit silly in 2007, and no one in that band sounds lonely. Works well as -
a) gimmick song to mock your friends;
b) a way to get back at an ex-girlfriend/boyfriend;
c) a song to make people leave your house.
Wow. September 11, 2001 made so many songs sound 20 times as trite as they were anyway.
All said though, could be a case of the band putting together a decent song and adding the "lonesome loser" lyrics because they just "happened" - as Genesis' "No Son Of Mine."
