alright, how the f*ck does everyone keep coming to the conclusion that this is about casual sex? It's definitely about a relationship between the speaker and the person he's talking to, but I don't see how casual sex has anything to do with anything.
the first verse i think is about him being bored and basically working his way into this girl's life and them having some sort or relationship, but he might not be happy, hence he "can't think," so he doesn't know if what he's doing is right.
"Is this it" reflects that.
The second verse I can't say precisely, but maybe he's talking about her past lovers, or all lovers in general, and how they are all simple and don't want to think about the fact that there's always somebody else waiting in the wings that will steal her first.
And the last verse is possibly about the clusterf*ck that relationships can cause. At first the girl's ex thinks it's alright, but he gets drunk and thinks that the speaker "went too far," and is upset about the girl seeing him. The speaker basically says that they're not all going to see eye to eye and that's how it should be.
then "is this it" takes on a different meaning, perhaps a grander meaning, asking, is this really how life is? nobody will see eye to eye and will make enemies for all kinds of stupid reasons.
then the first verse returns and the song comes full circle, the whole thing repeating, because progress will never be made: "is this it?"
