The theme of this song seems to be loneliness. The term "ripped" is sometimes used to describe someone who is stoned, and I believe that the author is describing the life of 'stoners' who are stuck in a life of loneliness. The ripped ones are finding that their interactions with others are ending in goodbyes rather than in invitations and that they seem to never find other people whom they can be connected to. The ripped ones wish to feel "attached" and "shared", and they watch while the other 'normal' people have the relationships and the feelings that the ripped ones wish they could have and feel.
@king1793 I think you may be onto something with your interpretation. I think that it may not be referring to Cannabis, per say, but I do agree that it seems to resonate loneliness heavily. The desire to unsee the things we’ve seen, or take back all the difficult times that have put us where we are now, even when that’s not a possibility. The “others,” everything just seems to flow so easily without any sort of troubles blocking the way.
