Wow there should be more comments on here, this song is amazing.
I definitely agree with the idea that this song is about growing up and going from the carefree days oh childhood to actually having to deal with reality. The beginning with "just killing time and making noise" refers to just being a kid really but then someone goes and says that kid stuff is pointless and telling you to grow up as it says "don't dream". And then it goes into being a teenager with the "cold radio and license plates". And then it talks about how growing up sucks and there's always something more you wish you could do or wish you would have done. "Behind every desire there's another one waiting to be liberated when the first one's sated" you start to feel like nothing really gets done although you try and try its just a futile cycle. I'm not completely sure what the "white and black hats" is about. Maybe...mood swings? Idk you get old and these things happen.
Well that's what I got from it. I might be wrong, but either way it's a great song. Definitely one of my favorites
