Love the artist. Creative song. I believe it's about two choices. One choice is a steady relationship where every weakness is known and sometimes people don't measure up (i.e. the hole in his basket). The other choice is the wild life with little responsibility and a "fly by my pants" take on life. The former is scary because it involves love and commitment while the latter (which is what he decides to choose) is easy and safe. He doesn't have to answer to anyone (which is more exciting) and what's more important is he can't let anyone down.
