Cover art for Good for You lyrics by Third Eye Blind

Am I the only one who sees this and thinks of someone talking to their child? I get the feeling that the father doesn't have a good relationship with the son - he keeps messing everything up and his son harbors grudges against him for that, which he feels are justified even if he finds them difficult to live with. The father wants to put himself back together and be there for the son, whose anger is making him into an angry young boy, but his son won't have any of it. So it's about how he hopes he'll come around eventually and understand that his father will always be there, no matter what.
