i feel like it's about a person who has adhd. and another person said to them that if that's all they're gonna be, they'll be a waste of time. like, the person with adhd needs to not let it define them, and improve themselves, not be an adhd person but a person who happens to have adhd.
these lyrics go along with my idea of this song:
""Will I get better? Or stay the same?
I found I always move too slowly
Can't lift a finger, can't change my mind
I never knew till someone told me that"
the adhd person wonders if they will ever overcome this condition they have. they know that they mess up all the time, are slow, lazy, and find it hard to change the way they think about things to the way everyone else who is normal thinks. they never knew that they were different until someone finally told them that they were, and that it may be because of adhd.
If that's all you will be,
You'll be a waste of time
You've dreamed a thousand dreams,
None seem to stick in your mind
Two points for honesty
It must make you sad to know that
Nobody cares at all "
adhd causes a person to have dreams, but then not stick with them, they constantly change their minds instead. often when a person has adhd, it feels like no one cares at all because often no one knows its adhd, not even the person who has it, if they haven't been diagnosed. adhd is widely under-diagnosed, especially for the quiet daydreamer type. also, people with adhd speak their minds often because they have no filter. so they can be quite honest a lot of the time. so, two points for that. and two points for the person who helps diagnose adhd honestly for a person.
you're welcome :) The meaning kinda just hit me when I was listening to it that day I posted my interpretation. I am glad it hit home with you too! us ADHD people need to stick together!

@artzy06@artzy06 idk if you’ll even see this because of how long ago it was posted, but after years of loving this song and it resonating with me so much, it finally clicked for me recently!! (I’m a classic case for a woman with ADHD, I was diagnosed a bit later, about 4 years ago — I’m 25 now.) I came here looking to see if anyone else had the same thoughts, so I literally gasped with excitement when I read the first line of your post! Makes me wonder if one of the Gusters has ADHD...(I kinda hope so,...
