Backstabber

Great song...but...what it means "backstabber"?

Amazing song. Jonezetta is my new addiction :]

This song is basically about this person and he or she backstabbed the guy who's singing. To backstab someone, incase no one knows, is to go behind someone's back and tell that person's secret to another person. It's like a betrayal. Here's what the song means to me:

"You're sorry You said it yourself and we believe you (No we really do!)"

• This is almost like they're mocking this person. Like, "Yeah, sure, we believe you. Keep believing that fantasy."

"Now no one is going to save you now!"

• Don't go looking for help because everyone was hurt by you and now they hate you.

"Backstabber! Backstabber! When you're in disguise"

• Normally, you're a really nice person to tell my secrets to...but, you're in 'disguise'. It's not the truth.

"You're laughing Cause they laugh at you And then you scream out to all the empty pews And no one is going to save you now!"

• The 'Backstabber' is laughing...but, then he or she realizes that they're laughing at him. And, in his/her anger, he/she screams because, well, this person's pissed.

"Now go and pray to your God inside And if you never knew, little boy it's you You can't use me! You won't use me!"

• I think the "God inside" thing is basically saying, "Go pray to your god." I think, in a way, the Backstabber is his own god because it then says "And if you never knew, little boy it's you". And, the person is taking out revenge saying, "You can't use me anymore and you won't! I'll be sure of that".

The End.

I originally thought this song was about the priests that were molesting those little boys. These holy men are backstabbers to the faith and to those kids. On top of that there are a lot of religious references. Just my two cents

wow i love this song. it's sooooo good live. haha it was so awesome the lead singers like

"yeah we got here and jumped off the bus in shorts and flip flops, and it was freezing! so this song is dedicated to mother nature" and then it started and i was flipping out.l

amaazing song really.

When I saw them in concert the first time, I thought they were saying "Backstabber, backstabbing ho!" and it amused me soooooo much.

i CANNOT get enough of jonezetta. this song isn't my fave lyrically but def. instrumentally! ah they just make me wanna dance. i can't wait for their next record!

It's actually about a former friend and member of the band, Josh Maze. Josh stooped really low and lied to Rob Chisholm's girlfriend in order that he could get her. The friendship broke, Rob wrote this song, Tooth and Nail signed them because of this song, and now it's available to purchase almost everywhere.

Revenge is sweet...
