Lyric discussion by zebraflesh 

When the band recorded this album, they all lived together.(they were even on MTV Cribs) It was no secret that Brandon and the then-bass-player for incubus had stopped getting along. i would be willing to bet it is written about Alex, but was left opened for your own personal interpretation on purpose. Brandon was trying to bite his tongue, as to not break up the band. (And of course, Alex was eventually replaced by Ben Kenney.)
