straightforward enough, isn't it. i think everyone could write the same song, just with different examples. i would think (and i should probably give the poor guy a break and stop just assuming every song he writes is related to take that) that in his case the main confusion is that he doesn't know what he wants >> "thinking of people calling my name but living life in solitude" << as he's always thinking about his old life and it's always on his mind, yet he doesn't really want to 'go out there' or do anything anyway >> "thinking of kissing a girl in the park but I'd rather be walking my dog". and then i suppose, just indecisiveness in general when you don't know where you're going... >> "thinking of teaching myself to play chess but i'd rather play drafts instead".
