Man, I hope I'm not the only one still listing to JTB in 2012. I think this is my favorite song by them. The lyrics are cheesy but, poetic. It all makes sense as to why it's cheesy when he says "Some people think I'm corny, or I'm morbid". The song almost references itself.
It is "I know I can write my way out of this". To me this song is about about that dream of being a poet, a writer or a musician, and how everything in your life adds to your writing, oooooorr, about how going through life is like reading a book. The overview (the Cliff's Notes/ getting the story from someone else) is not the same as going through (reading the book/ actually living something).
I am still listening to them as well as spreading them to people that haven't heard them.

I think the lyrics are coming directly from him about the situation of his parents and his musical career. While he knowingly is capable of writing something more acceptable to them. He doesn't want to because it disagrees with him, but at the same time the other side disagrees.
