Song Quote Response

I am doing a response to my favorite song of all time, it is "Miss America" by Something Corporate. Here are the lines that always seem to jump out of the song at me:
"And I don't care if you don't love me
And I don't care if you don't change
And I could live inside the shadow that I cast for you
If it meant that you would stay"(McMahon)
I think these lines are critical to the song, these words show how much the person cares about their lover and that they would do anything for them. It is a sad song, but I think its important because it shows the truth in a real relationship...people lie, cheat and cry. These lines specifically just show that despite the hell from all those things, a person will still bend over backward for the one they love. I like this part of the song because I think that it shows how dependent we can be towards the people we love, but not in a bad way. I think that if a person loses who they love, they will do or say anything to get their love back regardless of how much it could hurt them in the long run. This is only a bit of the song, and the whole song is amazing. I would love to ask why Andrew McMahon wrote this, what caused him to come up with the lyrics and what he personally thinks of this song. It has been the song I turn to when I feel happy or sad, it is my favorite song and I am greatly appreciative that it was made!
