It's basically about a young couple, the guy is probably a senior in high school, a year out of high school, or a dropout and the girl is considerably younger than him. Probably 16 or so. They recently broke up because they wanted different things in life. They had had a happy relationship for a long time and as they got older they realized that they wanted different things in life and if they stayed together they'd be holding each other back. They had been happy together though and had made lots of memories together. Neither of them have found anyone else yet and they keep holding onto each other because after being together they can't stand not having someone to be with. Alcohol seems to play a pretty big role in it too. They drink and keep getting back together because of the alcohol. The song is more like a poem or a work of art than a story though. There's lots of wordplay and it seems like Something Corporate wanted it to be more emotional and beautiful than interpretable. I think it's supposed to be confusing and open to your own interpretation so that almost anyone can identify with it and like it. I hope I helped and I really love this song too, it's one of my very favorites!

I used to listen to this song about a hundred times a day, let me conjure up my memory. It's about two people in love going through some pretty tough times, they're separated not by distance but by differences in their own lives, and about trying to get through that. It's about keeping the connection of an initial love going even when it feels like it's not there. ("It's to Jimmy eat world and those nights in my car, but this time I'm alone, and I can't see those stars, I'm not your star. Isn't that what you said, what you thought this song meant?") I think it's kind of a confusing song, too, because Andy kind of just rambles on about all the times he's screwed up and his gf won't take him, but it kind of resolves itself at that part "I always catch the clock at 11:11, and now you want to talk. It's not hard to dream, you'll always be my Konstantine." Anyways, kind of a long answer but I love that song.
Hope this helps!
Love,
