These lyrics are not based on an individual, although I know someone who might feel they are. They work on different levels.
On one level, the lyric decribes the adult myopia which leads to self destructive behaviour, recalling the ideal of youth.
The lyric was constructed using a former friend as a motif. Anyone who knows Chad might not mistake Chad for the lyric, but for those he tells. Anyone who doesn't know Chad will view the lyric as it is intended.

You remember when we met?
The games you used to play.
The love you mourned you lost.
The dream we wanted to share
But yours were yours
And mine was mine
Chad, this is felicity.
You remember taking my heart?
The games you used to play.
The others were merely friends.
My dream you promised to be a part.
But yours were yours
And mine was mine
Chad, this is felicity.
You remember our union?
The boat, the promise, the game.
The children for which you yearned.
A dream of love we shared
But yours were yours
And mine was mine
Chad, this is felicity.
You remember our dream?
The games we used to play.
Children, friends, mourned as lost.
Those dreams of love we had.
But yours were yours
And mine was mine
Chad, this is felicity.
Stop drinking Chad.
This is felicity.
Stop dreaming Chad.
This is felicity.
Stop yearning for that dream.
Chad, this is felicity.

It isn't about you. I think you are drawing a long bow to make out that it is. You might have noticed I have not responded to any of your online insults. Please don't make out that anything I have written is more than it is.
Sydney's Conservative does not identify me. That posting does not identify you.
Bullying is not a behaviour I respect.
If you want to say something to me you better write or call. But posting anything about me on a public form is not cool, and I have taken legal advice and am, advised that your present conduct towards me could easily be construed as defamatory. If you do not remove any and all references to me in you blog I shall be considering legal action.
