Actually, I could be wrong here, but I think this song is parodizing a world-view. It doesn't use the same lyricism in its poetry that they usually have ... "the most loneliest day of my life?" They know better than that. What I hear when I listen to this is that they're mocking the emo kids who listen to "Chop Suey" without understanding it, and write bad poetry. The whole thing is melodramatic and has very little depth compared to "Chop Suey" or "Soldier Side" for instance. In fact, except for the excellent vocals and instruments, it bears very little resemblance to anything else System has done. It's a beautiful spoof.
i totally agree with this. when i first heard this song, that was exactly what i thought. it is making fun of the people who say they have 'problems' and are so damn depressed. I think he's mocking them because he actually has had loss in his life. these kids are attention seeking bullshitters.

@thewanderervii I have to disagree with you on this one. Though you do make good points
