Ever read Hemingway's "Soldier's Home"?
The protagonist of the song is afflicted with heavy PTSD. He isn't able to fit into a normal society. His "darkness" is the memories of war, which come back when he sees the girls walking by, happy and free. He knows he can never feel what they are feeling again.
Harold Krebs in the story experiences the same feelings.

You don't know shit about emo, its origins, its trademarks. Paint It Black is Psych Rock, nothing to do with Emo incapacity, no connection to the Hardcore Punk scene, the way the emotions are displayed also isn't any Emo of any sub-genre would do.

Why is he telling a black person to paint something? That's pretty fucking racist.

Emo is about:
1. Being young
2. Being happy
3. Enjoying light sadness
3. Having romantic relationships

I really don't get this, if emo would be THIS broad, then millions of artists would be emo, people have no idea Emo has actual trademarks musically as well.
