The way I identify with this song is that I've been way more passive in my life than I would like, just having it pass by and observing, not being as active as I'd like. Seeing there is so much up for grabs but I seem disempowered to grab it, the feeling one might get when you're too drunk to drive so someone else is driving you home and you're kind of lying with your head up against the window watching things pass by.
