i really like the lyrics in the chorus of this song. i think the narrator is comparing himself to his ex-girlfriend in a beautifully metaphorical way. he's saying that she is the hear dotting "i" in the word "apologize," while contrastingly he is the "heart with no name airbrushed on the license plate of a subaru that was registered in pennsylvania." the girl seems quiet and honest, someone who went somewhere like hawaii (sent from somewhere volcanoes are) and got drunk and sent her old boyfriend a postcard saying apologize because she wants him to see he has done wrong, but also still loves him. the narrator is so different from his old girlfriend, because he is a rebel who airbrushed a heart onto the license plate of a car. but maybe the fact that they're so different is why they worked as a couple in the first place.
i know i probably read into it but i like telling myself there's an actual meaning to this song.
