Great song, and great band

it's pretty obviously about his struggle to stay afloat in life, but his consistent failure which doesn't break his sprit

we've all been disappointed with ourselves and been told by people that we can't succeed "i wish you were to enjoy it"

he become a failure, and hasn't amounted to anything just like people told him, but that dosen't mean he is going to give up
