Interpretation is in parenthesis.

She's going out to forget they were together
All that time he was taking her for granted
She wants to see if there's more
than he gave she's looking for
(Kind of from ex-girlfriend's POV of the breakup: The ex-girlfriend is recovering from a break-up. She goes out to find someone better. He was using her during the relationship.)

He calls her up
He's trippin on the phone now
He doesn't want her out there
And alone now
(The ex-boyfriend calls her and is angry about her going out so soon after the breakup.)

He knows she's movin it
Knows she's using it
Now he's losing it
She don't care
(He knows she's purposely trying to get guys. He's going crazy now about her and she doesn't care, which only makes it worse for him.)

Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
(Talking about all the hardships of love and how being in love sucks, so they don't wanna be in love.)
...

He was always giving her attention
Looking hard to find the things she mentioned
He was dedicated
That most suckers hated
That girl was fine
But she didn't appreciate him
(From ex-boyfriend's POV now: He was a good boyfriend to her. Other guys were jealous of him and his girlfriend, but she never appreciated everything he did for her.)

She calls him up
She's tripping on the phone now
He had to get up
And he ain't comin home now
He's tryin to forget her
That's how we come with him
When he first met her
When they first got together
(Now the guy is realizing why they broke up and is maybe thinking it was a good thing. Also, he is going out now, too. The girl does NOT like this, this wasn't supposed to happen - he's supposed to still love and want HER. Now SHE'S mad at HIM.)

We break up
It's something that we do now
Everyone has got to do it sometime
It's okay, let it go
Get out there and find someone
(Obvious, they broke up. They are on and off a lot. It's saying to shrug it off, and move on - or at least, that's what they try to do.)

It's too late to be trippin' on the phone here
Get off the wire
You know everything is good here
Stop what you're doin'
You don't wanna ruin
The chance that you got to
find a new one
(The breakup already happened. It's OVER. Everything's okay, stop being stuck in the past. You have a chance now to find someone better, but if you are sulking in the past business, you'll throw it away.)
