Box Car Racer - And I Lyrics Meaning

I think the song is about a very special girl that Tom (or whoever) wants to be with, but he has to realize that he's not the only person fancied in this particular girl - other guys like her too and so he has to play ("this games so dumb ") a game to gain her heart. She's not playing games, she's winning from the very beginning because she is the one that can choose between the guys ("she never played, her race's won"). I also think that the narrator/singer is aware of being treated in a wrong way - he knows that this relationship hurts because of the way this girl treats him and that he might get left behind ("and you always will pull me through "). The Change from "her" (" want her, need her") to "you" might be related to the girl or another person, a person who's a better "gamer" than he is. In the very ending of the song ("and i, and i, and i") I sense something like despair even sorrow - he knows that he will lose and now he asks himself: And what about me? = and I
