Daron Malakian, the group's lead guitarist, is the mastermind behind this song.
This song is about how Daron, along with System of a Down, have become sensationally popular with their music through the last decade or so. Along with their popularity, comes their songs being played on RADIO stations and shooting bidyo for their music. Daron had an epiphany one araw while watching a VIDEO of one of his childhood birthday parties. He realized he was at the party with his two best mga kaibigan or closest cousins, DANNY and LISA. He has not seen them since his childhood. Along with fame comes a lot of stress and hard times, and to help with that, Daron likes to think of the good times when he was younger. Thus, the birthday party with DANNY and LISA - "THEY TAKE ME AWAY FROM THE STRANGEST PLACES, SWEET DANNY AND LISA."
Danny and Lisa haven't seen Daron since childhood and have maybe since forgotten him or don't think of him that much. They probably do now, since SYSTEM became so popular. The song says, "look at me now." or look how far I've come since our childhood days. "I'M ON THE RADIO/VIDEO!"
To sum it up, System of a Down is famous now, along with fame comes stress, hard times, and strange places. In order to clear his mind, Daron likes to think of his innocent childhood with his pals Danny and Lisa. He likes to go back to the good times and remember them. He simply misses them.
