Specificly, I think its about how touring with the band, can cause the singer (I.E, Brian Sella) to feel depressed and lost. In the first stanza, he is talking about not understanding the situation he is in and feeling away from home. in the chorus, I think he talks about the effect that touring is having on him. after the chorus, he talks about having to "suck it up" and keep going.

after that, he repeats the chorus. I just wanted to elaborate on why I think this song is about touring.
