Lyric discussion by Shky 

Huh, I took something totally different from it. At least when Bright Eyes sings.

It makes me think that Bright Eyes realized that his town had different political views than him, and then he realizes that so do the people around him, his "friends" (perhaps parents, relatives).

It's like when someone realizes that they have starkly different religious or political views than their parents. It could be quite startling to them to realize that everyone seems to believe something they totally disagree with.

An error occured.
