This song is extremely relatable to me due to the way I have lived my life. It's mostly based off the idea that one can cause personal growth through conscious attempts to learn about life. The experiments on his heart, is him using girls for companionship yet also to learn how to be successful in future relationships, basically he uses the girls he dates now for the purpose at being bettering at dating in the future. He justifies this by saying 'Oh I see a better me in the future, so I don't need to worry about it now"
