My personal feeling is that the song is about a guy that's not necessarily successful in the most common senses of the word. Especially when it comes to love. He realizes this and yet he's fine with it. He doesn't need to become what others feel he should. He's somewhat lost, but he's okay with that. He's going to make things harder on those around him as a result of all this. But, in the end, he can be himself. How 'bout you?
