The song is an uptempo, in which the narrator confides in the significant other who dumped him. He informs her of a sophisticated new girlfriend who idolizes him, but this only displeases him. Likewise, he is haunted by his many flaws, which the former girlfriend knows all too well, and he feels certain that the new girlfriend will eventually realize his inadequacies, and is clearly pining for his old life. It is a rare song in that it deals with the "Impostor syndrome," the belief that one's good fortune is undeserved and likely to disappear.
