Bike Scene

TBS absolutely rocks my face off. I had this song stuck in my head ever since I woke up this morning. pretty ironic, because I was sitting in 6th period chemistry today and my ex sits behind me and was singing this song really quietly, but I heard him. wierd, because this song just completely reminds me of him and how i want to hate him so bad, but can't. :( and there he was, singing this song in the middle of chemistry class.... one of life's ironies I suppose.

gosh i hate it when relationships end badly, but hey that's the only way you learn right?

maybe i'll write a song about it one day too.

It's called bike scene for no reason other than they felt like calling it that. Did you notice that the majority of their song names (at least from "Tell All Your Friends") have nothing to do with the lyrics of the song? yay.

Wow.....i just wanna say that this is a site for song meanings not for people to be all like "oh shiiiitt this totally relates to my life, like omfg, how amazing is that?" shut the fuck up.

I'll leave the lights down low so she knows I mean business

THIS PART EXPALINS HOW THE BOY AND THE GIRL WHERE FUCK BUDDIES AT FIRST AND HE WAS HAPPY AT FIRST HENCE LEAVING THE LIGHTS DOWN LOW TO SHOW HER HES ONLY AFTER ONE THING..

And maybe we could talk this over Cause I could be your best bet Let alone your worst ex And let alone your worst...

THEN THIS PART IS SAYING THAT HE STARTS GETTING FEELINGS FOR HER AND HE ASKS TO MAYBE TALK THINGS OVER..THE "EX" PART IN THE LYRICS IS MISLEADING CUZ IT TOTALLY THROWS MY MEANING OFF BUT I THINK ITS "SEX"

I wanna hate you so bad But I can't (but I can't) stop this anymore than you can

THE CHORUS IS SAYING THAT HE DOESNT WANT TO FEEL THIS FOR HER BUT HE CANT STOP HIS ATTRACTION TO HER FROM GROWING

So honestly, how could you say those things when you know they don't mean anything? And you know very well that I can't keep my hands to myself, hands to myself

I THINK THAT THIS VERSE MEANS IS TALKING ABOUT THE THINGS SHE SAYS WHEN THEY'RE HAVING SEX LIKE I LOVE YOU AND OBVIOUSLY THEY DONT MEAN A THING AND THEN THE NEXT PART IS OBVIOUS

This is all wrong and it shows There's certain things I promised not to let you know, (I've got a silly way of keepin' you up on the edge of my seat, I've got a silly way of keepin' you up on the...) not to let you know I never let you, never let you, never...

THIS MEANS THAT THE WAY THERE RELATIONSHIP IS SPIRALING IS BECOMING RIDICULOUS AND THE EDGE OF SEAT THING IS SAYING THAT HE HAS THE ABILITY TO KEEP HER COMING BACK FOR MORE AND STAYING INTERESTED

You've got this silly way of keepin' me on the edge of my seat But you're only countin' the clock against the train And I'm miserable, oh (I've got a silly way of keepin you up on the edge of my seat, I've got a silly way of keepin you up on the...) And you're just getting started I'm miserable, oh And you're just getting started

THIS IS THAT SHE KEEPS HIM COMING BACK NOW TOO -- NO IDEA ABOUT THE TRAIN LINE -- THEN HES SAYING SHES MAKING HIM MISERABLE BECAUSE HE DOESNT KNOW WHAT TO DO BECAUSE HE SEEMS TO BE FALLING FOR HER AND YET SHE IS CONTENT WITH THE FUCK BUDDY SYSTEM

You've got me right where you want me (let's never talk about this again) Let's never talk, let's never, let's never talk about this again because... I didn't want it to mean that much to me I didn't want it to mean that much to me I didn't want it to mean that much to me I didn't want it to mean that much to me

THEN THIS PART IS AFTER HE'S SHARED HIS FEELINGS AND SHE OBVIOUSLY DOESNT RETURN THEM SO HE NEVER WANTS TO TALK ABOUT IT AGAIN AND HE'S SAYING THAT SHE GOT HIM IN THE PALM OF HER HAND AND WHEREVER SHE WANTS THE RELATIONSHIP TO GO IT CAN....AND THEN THE LAST BIT OF REPITTION IS OBVIOUS

thanks-- good song ..and john nolan is overrated.

yea last but not least, that's what i think of whne i hear this song

why's it called "bike scene"?

This song is one of my favorite TBS songs. I think it's called bike scene cause it happened while he was riding his bike home getting ready for her to come over. But hey, that could waaaaaaay off, which it probably is.

It reminds me of my ex, and how there were so many things I wanted to tell her, that I never did. Like how I rushed things with her, and ended up being the worst possible boyfriend. And then the hate that I wanted to feel towards her, but never could. Relationships always mean something to you, reguardless of how little you wish they did.

God... Taking Back Sunday has to be one of the greatest bands ever.. they write such powerful music that relate to so many people. Its wonderful. :)

this is one of the best TBS songs i lovve the part when he says "u have this silly way of keeping me on the edge of my seat" that is just the best K8*

does anyone else agree that when he stresses the word "right" is the best part of the song...music wise, not lyric?
