I believe the lyrics to this song is intended to be written in transition from a first to third person stand point. The first person portrayal of the song is when brandon is saying "I," example: but I think I'm on to something here... this is when he tends to make statements and then he kind of transcends his statements to his internal thoughts, which are typically generated conclusions to his first-person statements. His third person assumptions are like "but sooner or later they'll be throwing quarters on stage." Brandon's an artist, a musician- someone who's life entitles going on stage. So maybe he's suggesting that in his current state of mind (when he was writing this song) was that he's scared that that's what it's eventually going to come to... his last lyric was "yeh, it's just a phase and I am waiting for it to be over too!" Maybe he's just waiting for his current state of mind to subside...
