This song is amazing. I believe Jules has come up with his own interpretation about human relations. "Somewhere along the way" may be refering to the experience gained during his still short life... When we're young, we feel everything very intensely... The hopefulness, the bitterness, the anger, the sadness...
Revenge may seem sweet at the beginning, but the result often is against our intentions... We end up hurting the ones that we love the most (by drinking too much, using drugs, quiting school, having sex relations with different people, etc.), and those who we intended to hurt do not even notice our behavior, nor they even care that much...
I think the whole song talks about hopelessness and regret... Our friend Jules seemed to have matured! I've been a Strokes fan since their beginning, but this is by far the best lyrics i have read and enjoyed from Casablancas... Great, great song!
