One More Weekend Lyrics
Somewhere hiding underneath
Kickin' off covers while you sleep
Soon you're gonna leave
So leave us one more weekend
You've got all the friends you need
Bad tattoos and worse IDs
You feel alive
Do you feel alive?
You'll go off
You'll forget
You'll grow out
Of hanging from the edges
Breaking off the past
You'll know when to move up
You'll know when to take all
The right chances
Never looking back
Somewhere hiding underneath
Runnin' around these empty streets
Do you think you're better off dead
Better off dead
Than alive in here?
You've got all the friends you need
Bad tattoos and worse IDs
You feel alive
Do you feel alive?
You'll go off
You'll forget
You'll grow out
Of hanging from the edges
Breaking off the past
You'll know when to move up
You'll know when to take all
The right chances
Never looking back
How could you think
The time we spent
Was all wasted?
Sleepwalking through every morning
We took for granted
Maybe the time we spent
Was all wasted
We'll let it go
I'll let you go
You'll go off
You'll forget
You'll grow out
Of hanging from the edges
Breaking off the past
You'll know when to move up
You'll know when to take all
The right chances
Never looking back
We are half alone
Our hearts are leaving home
Now we don't belong
To anyone at all (x2)
Somewhere hiding underneath
Kickin' off covers while you sleep
You feel alive
Kickin' off covers while you sleep
Soon you're gonna leave
So leave us one more weekend
Bad tattoos and worse IDs
You feel alive
Do you feel alive?
You'll forget
You'll grow out
Of hanging from the edges
Breaking off the past
You'll know when to move up
You'll know when to take all
The right chances
Never looking back
Runnin' around these empty streets
Do you think you're better off dead
Better off dead
Than alive in here?
Bad tattoos and worse IDs
You feel alive
Do you feel alive?
You'll forget
You'll grow out
Of hanging from the edges
Breaking off the past
You'll know when to move up
You'll know when to take all
The right chances
Never looking back
The time we spent
Was all wasted?
Sleepwalking through every morning
We took for granted
Maybe the time we spent
Was all wasted
We'll let it go
I'll let you go
You'll forget
You'll grow out
Of hanging from the edges
Breaking off the past
You'll know when to move up
You'll know when to take all
The right chances
Never looking back
Our hearts are leaving home
Now we don't belong
To anyone at all (x2)
Kickin' off covers while you sleep
You feel alive
Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
this song is my favorite off the new album.
the meaning to me is crystal clear because I lived it. it's about one of your friends going off (i asssume to college) and you and the rest of your friends being left back in the town. and it's just all about how you know that person has to break out of the town and go to college because that's life, and you're happy for them and know they will succeed but it still sucks. especially because, as the time passes, the memories you thought were great seem like time they wasted when they could have been having the fun they are now.
"You think the time we spent Was all wasted Sleepwalking through every morning We took for granted Maybe this time we spent Was all wasted We'll let it go I'll let you go"
oh, and it's BAD TATTOOS AND WORSE IDEAS
it sounds like its saying "bad tattoos and worse ID's."
I think the question mark might be 'our hearts are leaving home' at least thats what i've seen other people enterperating it as, it could still be wrong of course.
if all you have are "bad tattoos and worse IDs" to make you feel alive and young, you're trying too hard to force the feeling and it will eventually fade.
its definatly bad tattoos and worse IDs.. as in a bad fake ID.. and i think this song is about wanting to feel older and doing everything to make it seem like you are but when you eventually do grow up you wish being young and a teenager never ended
erite i agree with lilyloves on pretty much every song...genius haha
haha thank you Dub2, I have disected the shit out of the album, you know a couple years after high school you start to look back and think about that stuff...:)
It is 'worse IDs'. That's what the cd booklet says...
Anyway this song to me was different. I interpreted it. I took it as not realizing how great you have everything and not realizing how mush you're taking everything for granted. Your letting the bad things wheigh on you. The you'll go off, you'll forget was to me something that's is wheighing you down but its so small that someday you'll forget about it and it won't matter anymore. Its also about not realizing what you really need in life. Like the whole material shit. Thinking being cool & popular brings you happiness but its really friendship & love...
That's what I got from it. Either way the song is amazing...
Definately one of my fave on the album.
