This song reminds me of the book The Things They Carried, so if you like this song reading a part of that book will change your perspective on this whole song. I'm not a big reader but this book was really good.
"I'm only gonna let you down" I feel like this is a person responding to another who's angry with them. Maybe they forgot their birthday, or missed some other important event. They're saying that nothing _truly_ awful is happening now, nobody's _really_ getting hurt, and it isn't honestly _that_ big a deal. They're _only_ letting them down.

Had no idea this mashup has been around so long. I sent it to a local radio station thinking i was possibly the first to hear this. Its so amazing.
