Cover art for Make Believe lyrics by Silversun Pickups

Lets take a jab at this one, shall we? I feel like this is about a relationship(of course right) but maybe not one that ever happened. Childhood friends playing "make believe" games as kids, but eventually he turns to have feelings for her. As they get older he wants to tell her and confess his love. He will give her everything she needs, just like in their world of make believe. But he feels that he hasn't quite figured himself out just yet. He feels like he is still stuck in the wrong mindset with her, thats why she "shakes" his "reality" It really comes together for me when this line comes up "I wish I could just warn you of my incomplete" he wants to tell her his feelings, but also admit that he isn't in the best state of mind to be with her, but he can't cross that boundary, unless its in his world of "make believe" just my opinion.
