Listen To Your Friends Lyrics
I wake up in a waiting room with the taste of blood and a clouded view
I notice there is a tear in my jeans, the sleeves on my shirt have been ripped from their seams
And my memory is a little bit blank, the thought of my name doesn't seem to come back
And I turn and scream, "what am I here for?"
The nurses yell, "you were left at the door"
I'm a stranger, someone left me for dead
And I need to decide what to do next
Oh, just then I found a note in my pocket
It read, "I don't ever want to see you again"
And I guess that explains why I can't remember the rest of the night
I should have listened to my friends
I should have listened to them, when they told me you had bad intentions
I remember the string of events, from the dinner receipt when I grabbed your hand
I know that you went in for a kiss
And I told you, "that's not only what this is"
You held me at the end of my seat
Then you had that look, the look of defeat
You wish that you could start this over
Instead you left me in a coma
Oh, just then I found a note in my pocket
It read, "I don't ever want to see you again"
And I guess that explains why I can't remember the rest of the night
I should have listened to my friends
I should have listened to them, when they told me you had bad intentions
I should have listened to my friends
I should have listened to them, when they told me you had bad intentions
Oh, just then I found a note in my pocket
It read, "I don't ever want to see you again"
And I guess that explains why I can't remember the rest of the night
Yeah!
I should have listened to my friends
(And I don't ever wanna see you again)
I should have listened to them, when they told me you had bad intentions
I should have listened to my friends
(And I don't ever wanna see you again
Listen to your friends!)
I should have listened to them, when they told me you had bad intentions
When they told me you had bad intentions.

great song. really catchy. cant wait for the new album. lyrics are pretty self explanatory, they tell a story.
comment away
good stuff. pretty self explanatory. if the rest of their new cd sounds like this then i am excited for it.
I cannot wait for Not Without A Fight. If this song is any indication it'll be amazing; back to the NFG we know and love. Such a catchy tune.
As for the meaning, the chorus really says it all. "I should have listened to my friends I should have listened to them when they told me you had bad intentions". Enough said.
i can't wait til the new album is released!
this song is great as far as instrumentals go and lyrics, favorite from the new album. "Oh, just then I found a note in my pocket It read, "I don't ever want to see you again" And I guess that explains why I can't remember the rest of the night Yeah!" favorite part, and this song is so true, most of the time your friends know better than you do about whose good for you heh.
cool song
I really like it for its instrumentals, but (I could just be over-critical) it sounds a little too poppy and I just don't really like how straightforward the lyrics are. Go ahead and scold me, I don't mind.
SeanZiii, I'm scolding you. Lol, kidding. Valid point, but I personally disagree about the 'poppyness' Other songs of there's sound similar to this. Still, each to their own :] I love this song and how it tells a story.
'And I turn and scream, "what am I here for?" The nurses yell, "you were left at the door" I'm a stranger, someone left me for dead' Intense lines.
I always have loved Jordan's voice.
To me, this song seems to be a case of someone's friends telling him that some chick isn't right for him, taken to an extreme. They told him not to date her, but he does. She ends up hating him for some reasn and then he apparently get knocked into a coma by her and ends up in a hospital without memory of what happened. I find that hard to believe but that's my interpretation. It would be fairly more believable if Jordan (the singer) meant to be singing from the perspective of a girl and she dated a guy who got pissed and knocked her out. It just seems improbable for a girl to send a guy into a coma hah.
The "I know that you went in for a kiss, and I told you that's not only what this is" leads me to believe that the girl jordan's singing about what just trying to get somewhere with him, but he actually has feelings for her and wants to be with her. And that's why his friends told him "she has bad intentions". So maybe Jordan (since I think he's straight edge like Chad) wouldn't do anything sexual with the girl, she got outraged and violent. I'm probably taking the song too literally. He's probably saying that the girl tried to take advantage of him, and it hurt him emotionally instead of physically.
Wow hah
Extremely catchy. Thank God they are not being Emo like the last album. This album is much more uplifting and positive.
