I looovee this song. Sometime's it's how I feel about romance...

To me, this song is about someone who hates his father, probably because he was somewhat of a womanizer or just enjoyed sleeping around. It sounds to me like he's very close to his mother, but because she was hurt by this man in some kind of short-lived relationship, he grew to feel like love isn't real or he shouldn't trust anyone

I love how he uses the term "Furniture" as some kind of metaphor. Furniture is so easy to just move around and make it do what you want, put it in any position and just use it. Kind of like how some marriages are.
