I don't know now... The whole thing seems too generic for it to be a fault. I've heard the overlying theme of the album is superficiality, and I think all these cliches we're seeing aren't the band trying to be the next big thing, but trying to show how fickle such a position is. The idea is somewhat supported by the cover. Opposite to "Evanescence" whose theme is "slowly fading away"; a glass grenade brings to mind a sudden, concussive crash from existence. I may be grasping, but maybe this song is SUPPOSED to be as simple and blunt as it sounds.
