This song is so great. it's like pure loved up anger. ''and it feels like those around want you to die?' have you ever felt that? sometimes it's when you don't even know the people, just people on the street and you get a feeling that the whole world just wants you to not be there for no apparent reason.

He's gone through the post-break-up depression, and now he's hoping she's still feeling that way too. At least it would validate the relationship they had instead of it just being a waste of time. He's saying, "If she feels bad about it, that would make me feel better."

i luv diz lyrics..It's basically about This guy asking his x-gf all these questions after they broke up. She NOW comes to realize what she has but he knows better than to take her back. Even though she still loves him, he knows it didnt mean THAT much to her if she had to go with sumone else.
