During their Coachella concert in 2003, Casey Spooner specifically says during the intro "This isn't for you, and this is not for me. This is for the little Us's across the land, that don't know where to go, that don't know what to do, that don't like to play football, that aren't girl scouts and have nowhere to turn. Let's fuck it up together! Let's fuck it up!"
For this reason, here is the song should be taken in the context of an anthem for a person feeling mediocre in society:
'Hyper-mediocrity' = of moderate quality / not very good / average
'You don't need to emerge from nothing / You don't need to tear away.' = Advice to not feel over-pressured to fit in or be successful. Then advice on not needing to resent society, go into isolate or go off the deep end.
'Feels good, looks good, sounds good' = The state of being when you follow the advice and gain contentment with yourself.
