"But he's got the worst taste in music
If I didn't know this I'd lose it "
That's literally one of the saddest things I've ever heard in all of music. It's about how someone he loves, maybe even lost and used to be with, is with a guy who is absolutely perfect in every way, and they make a terrific couple and the only fault he can manage to find in this guy is that he likes terrible music. The narrator clings to this one flaw because the idea of her being happy and with this perfect being in place of him is just devastating.
