Lyric discussion by scycis 

since everybody else seems content being cliche and (sometimes) pathetic, i guess it's up to me to actually try to bring meaning to the words.

this song is of course, about a girl conor cares about coming to town and how he anticipates her coming, but when she does come, they are joined by many people either at a party or some other social function. he wishes it was just him and her, and that he could put his feelings into words, but he knows it wouldn't matter or change anything if he could, so he lets her go, and return to the 'west coast' (in all likelyhood, california) while he stays with his feelings, not knowing what to do. your little interpretation for the night, kids.

Wow.

These lyrics are pretty straightforward. I agree that comments without much more than praise for the artist are a bit pointless on a website dedicated to the meaning of the song, but I do not think anyone needs you to, "actually try to bring meaning to the words." They're not awfully complex and nobody needed you to crack the code with your superiority.
