I think this song is about Matty, a guy with the reputation, being involved with the stereotypically shy but snarky girl.
"A soft sound, to the way that she wears her hair down, covering up her face." She's shy, introverted.
"Oh what a let down. I don't seem to be having effect now, falling all over the place."
She seems to be immune to his charms. Instead she's the one making him flustered.
"But you're losing your words, we're speaking in bodies..."
She's becoming less snarky, running out of comebacks and starting to like him after all. Basically for this part they get physical, probably have sex.
When he says "avoiding me and talking about you," it's because he has a bad reputation and would rather not talk about himself and would like to hear more about her.
"For crying out loud! Settle down! You know I can't be found with you."
He doesn't want them to be seen together because it'll corrupt her good reputation. He knows what people say about him. For the rest of this part it's physical again.
"A small town. Dictating all the people we get around. What a familiar face. Do you see what I mean now?"
It's a small town, people will find out they have a thing going on sooner or later.
"I'm so fixated on the girl with the soft sound and hair all over the place."
He's falling for the shy girl.
"But you're sure that I'd learn, I'm pushing through bodies, avoiding me and walking 'round you." I think he's trying to avoid her because he thinks he's no good for her.
"But you're cold and I burn." She's still quite snarky and defensive and he's quite passionate.
"I guess I'll never learn..." He can't avoid her successfully because he can't stay away.
And then basically it's a repetition of previous parts, he tries to remind her they shouldn't be seen together — she doesn't seem to care despite him continuously trying to convince her ( to the point of exasperation: "For crying out loud") — but he ends up getting together with her all the time anyway, even though people are bound to find out.
