Someone told me today that "Disappointed" was about the Smiths breakup, and asides from the obvious disappointment in the breakup, I don't see how it could be interpreted that way. Anyone have any input?

I always saw this one as being about the breakup. Like receiving a poison pen letter from a (musical) ex.
Morrissey is the “unsleepable friend”, and he’s basically been delivered a “f*** You” by Johnny in the form of the Smiths split, hence being “in ruins because of people who are nice.” It’s basically I Keep Mine Hidden, pt 2, along with “I Don’t Mind If You Forget Me” which is along the same lines.
I think the line, “This is the last song I will ever sing” is a sort of nudge towards people in the Smiths camp who thought Morrissey would disappear from music without Johnny.
Omg you're back!!!!! you are one of the few people on this site i like
I remember reading a very elegant review of this song some years ago, which postulated that the song is about a friend with HIV, and how everyone suddenly shuns them, leaving the singer disappointed. I think that's a good interpretation.
the reverb sound...seems like a how soon is now reference...?
