   The song explains the classic dynamics of an identity crisis: my own indeed. Role playing to try to figure out who I am: ex: change of hair color, wearing clothes far above my my career status. Ex:not allowing others to connect too closely for fear of abandonment, or abandoning them first.(I was abandoned by mother as infant and later in life.) Afraid to confront relationship problems in a constructive manner. Over reacting to thingy but ashamed of feelings later. Grad from college with no purpose or plan.

   The marriage is over but we don’t have the courage to leave our comfortable life style
   We gave different friends different interest. We both fight endlessly the words are meaningless and we are tired to try and fix the marriage so we go on and on and smile for the cameras it an illusion Fie the cameras and we turn away as soon as the cameras off. We go to bed -separate beds and cry each each night.

   The girl is so afraid to tell her feeling because she does not want to be hurt or being played
   While perhaps the boy is so confusing with the situation
   Both are just so confused each other that they just wanna dissapear when their crush appears in front of them...coz they don't know what to say and so scared to reduce the emotion by saying wrong words
