This song actually makes me think of clinical depression.
"Where do I go from here if not dissappear?" I see that as a reference to running away (obviously "Leaving, may not be coming home" goes with this also) or even suicide
"I'm dealing with what I can't control." Feelings of desperation over not being able to cope with life
"Feeling confused because I don't know if healing is when you don't feel a thing." Feelings of blankness, or experiencing emotions that contradict the mood or situation surrounding you
Whatever it's about, I love this song, just like Relient K's other songs. Some of their newer releases, from The Birds and the Bee Sides, have a slightly darker edge to them, but I'm glad to see that RK can sing about more serious, personal matters than Chapstick (not to say I don't love that song!) while still making their songs fun and enjoyable to listen to.
