Social Development Dance Lyrics

I think this song is about a girl who was always looking for something new in her life, consequentially leading her to dating around a lot and looking for that "something missing in us" to make her whole.

Even going so far as to cheat on her boyfriend to find it ("When your boyfriend called You pressed against the wall 'Oh I really gotta go now'").

Then he lost touch with her over time and she died and he misses her and hopes she knew in the end that she had everything she ever could of wanted even if she never knew it.

Just my thoughts on an absolutely amazing song. How Pete does it, I have no idea...
