	The song is most notable as a view into [[Christian Weston Chandler\|Chris]]'s personal definition of [[autism]]: a condition that makes him quiet and has rendered him [[Chris and his Ego\|so especially intelligent and different]] that he can't make friends. It is strange that he refers to fellow autistics as "us", given the fact that he always tries to disassociate with "[[slow-in-the-minds]]".

	In one of the last repeats of the chorus, Chris begins singing the second line with an especially upbeat tone (Silence and friends UN-SEEEEN!!), from then on Chris finishes the song with an unusually cheery cadence. This could be explained by the pop-y nature of the original song being infectious and making Chris forget that the subject matter is autobiographical as well as tragic. While not unexpected, this shows Chris has little understanding of tone, or that he holds little legitimate emotional stock in the song.
