John is expressing sadness in this song, and disappointment about who he is. He's also expressing that, no matter what, he knows that he won't change. He has accepted who he is at this stage in his life--an overanalyst and a more profound thinker than those around him. Although he's comfortable with who he is, there are times when he wishes he was oblivious to life's more important questions, like the rest of the ignorami out there...and just have a good time.
