I thought it was "black, 'cause they belonged in hell."

Anyways, I believe this song could be about a couple of things, but this is my number one idea: Someone whose peers never fell in love, were too tough skinned for it. He knows they'll all look down on him if he opens up to someone, but he wants to so badly. He's afraid he'll just accept the fact that he isn't made for love and will board up his heart and become another calloused heart.
