I'm in and out of conversation
It's hard to keep my attention locked down
So don't take offence to anything I say
I tried so hard to keep you coming back my way
But you don't know the half and the one to blame for it

'Cause I'm best known for failure
Best known for giving up
There's nothing that I can say that can matter, that can matter enough
'Cause I'm best known for failure (hey)
Best known for giving up (hey)
There's nothing that I can say that can matter

I've figured out my situation
I am an endless source of useless information
Give me bad news 'cause it's already been expected
I let my front down
And I know I will regret it
But you don't know the half and I'm the one to blame for it

'Cause I'm best known for failure
Best known for giving up
There's nothing that I could say that can matter, that can matter enough
'Cause I'm best known for failure (hey)
Best known for giving up (hey)
There's nothing that I can say that can matter, that can matter enough

Lets get down to business now
I'm saving myself the trouble in the end
So lets get down to business now
I'm saving myself the trouble in the end
(Saving myself the trouble)
But you don't know the half and the one to blame for it

(Hey) 'cause I'm best known for failure (hey)
Best known for giving up (hey)
There's nothing that I can say that can matter

I'm the one to blame for this
Yes I'm the one to blame

Best known for failure
Best known for giving up
There's nothing that I could say that can matter
That could matter enough

    this song is an example of the transition NFG's made in their sound for the new record. i dig this song a lot and its a lot more fun to listen to than sticks and stones. the double bass in this is sick.

    THe bit that says "I let my friends down" when Jordan sings it sounds like "I let my frogs down" lol- who knows Jordan may own a pond full of frogs- joking.....

    Jordan sings so ridiculously high, and it bugged me at first. But I still like this song a lot...

    I'm a HUGE new found glory fan.. and i have this song to thank for saving me from myself over the last year.. IVE BEEN THROUGH SOME SHIT! but this song has saved me!

    whoever entered the lyrics got them wrong.. the first line is "and i'm in and out of conversation" not "i'm in a doubt, a conversation"

    as for the meaning.. i rekon its about not being able to get the girl you want.. and hating yourself for not having the guts to go up to her and say "holy shit your hot!" lol!

    i don't know.. not pretending to be an expert or anything.. but if you look at it its all there!
