Even though it's a love song, this song reminds me of all the expectations put on me as a child. It always seemed like everyone wanted me to be this great, amazing achiever, but nobody ever asked me what I wanted. I developed one hell of a complex about it, spent eight years of my life with a drug and alcohol problem, had a string of shallow relationships and one-night stands in my twenties, and didn't come out the other side finally feeling like I was worth a damn until...well, I was 33 (for those keeping score, my 33rd birthday was three months ago) when I finally got it together.
