This song means a lot to me. I think this song is about someone who is incredibly shy (like myself) and is going through some tough times (depression) and just wants someone to notice ore be his friend, and just when he thinks that very thing will happen, he sinks back down again, However, he eventually realizes he not gonna change for their benefit. I have a lot of real experiences of that sort. People always tell me, oh you should talk more, but they never listen when I do, they just ignore me like always. There will be times when I think, this is it, someone might finally notice me and understand what I'm going through. But then I just sink back into my original form. I'm starting realize, though, that I don't need them. If they can't appreciate me for who I am, what are they really wort? That's what I think this song is all about.

My Interpretation

Curious: how did you treat those people? Did you include them in your REAL life? Did you lie to them about something similar for not days, weeks, or months; rather, for years? Did you pick others over them repeatedly? Are you still absent, but yet not absent from the lives of others? Could you perhaps be trying to use people for your own selfish wants/needs? And most importantly, do you not change because it's difficult and risky or because you actually love the payoff you currently get (and have been perhaps getting for years)? I'm sorry. I'm just curious....

I really must say I am not surprised with your interpretation. You just don't appear to get it.

^^^ To the person above, I don't think you get it. When people ignore you you feel insignificant. You start to feel inhuman and that you don't matter. I have (and still am) gone through the same.
