"Paint me by numbers, and don't ask me why" seems to reffer to the fact that there is no reason to speak of. The song (and likely the relationship it's about) is simple, granted, it's simple insanity, but it's still simple. There is no discernable method to the madness, but the song is better for it. It's like he took every random thought and aspect of the relationship, rhymed them, and started singing. I love it
