"My heart is On My Sleeve, I wear it Like a bruise or black eye, my badge my witness, means that I believe, every single lie you said" This pretty much means, he shows how he's feeling, his heart is out there for everyone to see, and he got hurt because his girlfriend lied to him. "And every pane of glass that your pebbles tapped negates the things I went through to avoid you..." This means the girl would keep bothering him with the situation, even though he knew already and was trying to avoid the entire situation. "But there's a light on, in chicago, and I know I should be home, and all the colors of the streets signs, they remind me of that pickup truck out in front of your neighbors house" he's been out of town (touring possibly) and he knows he should be at home with his girlfriend, but she found a new person, her neighbor, which is why the pickup trucks at her neighbors house, she's cheating on him. "You want apologies, girl you might hold your breath, until your breathing stops forever" basically, she wants apologies for being left alone, even though she's the one who took advantage of the situation and left him angry. So he wants her to feel horrible or posisbly die.

At first I though it was plain and simple about a guy, who's liked a girl for who knows how long and is all mad about her not liking him and basically not giving him a chance. You know "loaded guns to our heads" pretty pissed off I would say. He's just like why won't she like me, oh I don't care if she does screw her and continues on.

I love this song very much and really I don't think it matters too much what the person above/below you thinks it means. I this it is adorable. I can't say I know everything about the band but they seem like sweet funny down to earth people and I like to think of myself that way. If I were to write a song I honestly would try to trick people and write one about my dog or something and laugh when people tried to interpret it or apply it to their boyfriends or friends and family knowing (secretly) that is was about no one other than my boxer, you know. I like to keep an open mind about all of their songs. This one very well could be about a girlfriend, but I like that there is a question to it and maybe it shouldn't be answered? that is what makes it so amazing. and about Pete or Patrick being bi....really I don't mind ;-) please do.<3 lol and I do agree with whoever said that music should be appreciated. If all of them ran train on their tour bus, this song would still be amazing just like all the other ones.
