Thats what I think the lyrics are and as for enterpretation, I think the whole song is about their mind state as of now and their ultra-succesful band, which I take as being a little insecure but confident in their abilities as a band at the same time. To me their saying were the best but were getting old but were still fighting. I say that because when they say "Your Not The First Or The Last..." its like a critic talking abound bands because theyre not the first or the last band to exist but they might be the best("prettiest"). Then they say "He's A Fighter Past His Prime..." which I take the 'he' to mean Fall Out Boy as one person is still alive and fighting even with their trials, tribulations and succesful careers. FOB is the best.
