Lyric discussion by Ryder556 

I think this song is about getting over a long relationship.

"And I guess I'll just begin again" You always have to move on from a break up.

"You say can we still be friends" Girls(and guys sometimes) always want to stay friends.

"Now you're knocking at my door Saying please come out against the night But I would rather be alone Than pretend I feel alright"

If it was a long and loving relationship something like this always happens. One person is feeling like **** and doesn't want to do anything well the other person is trying to get him/her to get out and meet new people.

"Now I'm ready to start I would rather be wrong Than live in the shadows of your song My mind is open wide And now I'm ready to start Your mind surely opened the door To step out into the dark Now I'm ready" The Narrator has finally realized that it's time to move on.

Just my 2 cents.

I thought it was about a relationship too. More like he is comfortable in it and realizes that it isn't what he wants. He knows it may be the wrong decision, but he's going to stick with it no matter what. He's not going to be friends with them again, he's ending it completely. "You say can we still be friends" "If I was yours, but I'm not."

The businessman part confuses me though. It makes me think that it is about their popularity becoming too much for them. Their fear of selling out.
