Solitude Is Bliss Lyrics

Yep, introvert anthem IMO. I don't think it is a song about drugs this time, just because a couple of the lyrics might hint at that doesn't mean the entire song is about it. I think the introvert interpretation works better with the majority of the lyrics. The video backs that up I think, watch the way the guy is trying to move away from the crowd and when his "alone time" is interfered he gets pretty angry (like punching a dog and human and shooting down someone).

My Interpretation

Yes, but why in the start of the video he leaps for that ambulance? I get a feeling that he's emotional about someone and is angry because nobody could relate to him so instead he's either wasting his life (the crowd symbolizes other people doing they're daily tasks and the dog is probably his own boss or things he needs to do) or just would feel better being alone. He doesn't want to move in the same direction everybody else is going anymore (he wants to go back, perhaps to an old relationship?)
