If any of you have seen the video (not that videos are the way to interpret songs, though the band probably has something to do with it), it shows the guys in the band getting beat at basketball and ultimate frisbee, and then ultimately beating up some hulking wrestlers. Judging by their commentary on 'fitting in' in The Middle, I'd take liveEmodieEmo's comments on wishing (which are undoubtedly correct) further and say that he's wishing he could transcend above those people that say 'you're not bigger than this why can't you learn' to him. It makes for another encouraging song (prior to The Middle from Bleed American), giving the finger to the people who try to keep you down.
