I heard this music for the first time in Need for Speed: Underground 2, it took me 8 years to understand the meaning of this music.
"It's the cruelest joke to play
I'm so high, I run in place
Only a line, we separate, so..."
This means he started to have a mental breakdown since his girlfriend broke up with him, and the "Line they separated" mean they have gone to separate ways.
[Chorus]
"I keep on playing our favorite song
I turn it up while you're gone
It's all I've got when you're in my head
And you're in my head so I need it"
The man puts the song which best represented the couple, and he turned the volume higher when she had gone and she means a very important thing to him and he needs her.
"You're the only thing I've got
That I can't seem to get enough
We collide for one embrace, so..."
She was the only thing he had in his bad days and he wants to hug her to feel better.
[Chorus 2x]
"Hurry up and wait forever
Hurry up and wait for forever"
It means that he believes he will not have a new chance to see her again.
[Chorus 2x]
"I need it
I need it
I need it
Now"
Even with all the things happening above, he still wants her and now.
The real reason i could understand this music is because i am in a very similar situation.
