Give Lyrics
ive got a million things going around in my head
and i never really paid attention to what you said, no
and now i wish that i would have said goodbye
but its much too late, and all i go is give and all you do is take
youve gotta look before you leap
and take a look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep
youve got words coming at you from all directions
you gotta look before you leap
and take a good look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep - they got words, oh yeah
theres a lot of things that were never said
and if wed grown up faster than i would have stood up
but - i should have cut you loose a long time ago
but its much too late
and all i do is give and all you do is take
youve gotta look before you leap
and take a look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep
youve got words coming at you from all directions
you gotta look before you leap
and take a good look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep - they got words, oh yeah
well there was a time when you didnt try to lord me over
never was there a time when i felt bad for you
whenever you had the chance, the way i see it
you tried to screw me over
never was there a time when i wasnt there for you
youve gotta look before you leap
and take a look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep
youve got words coming at you from all directions
you gotta look before you leap
and take a good look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep - they got words, oh yeah
they got words, oh yeah
they keep flying their flags
but theyre never gonna understand
and i never really paid attention to what you said, no
and now i wish that i would have said goodbye
but its much too late, and all i go is give and all you do is take
and take a look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep
youve got words coming at you from all directions
you gotta look before you leap
and take a good look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep - they got words, oh yeah
and if wed grown up faster than i would have stood up
but - i should have cut you loose a long time ago
but its much too late
and all i do is give and all you do is take
and take a look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep
youve got words coming at you from all directions
you gotta look before you leap
and take a good look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep - they got words, oh yeah
never was there a time when i felt bad for you
whenever you had the chance, the way i see it
you tried to screw me over
never was there a time when i wasnt there for you
and take a look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep
youve got words coming at you from all directions
you gotta look before you leap
and take a good look at your so-called friends
yeah, thats the company you keep - they got words, oh yeah
they got words, oh yeah
they keep flying their flags
but theyre never gonna understand

I agree it's about a losing friend who wasn't that great.The line that says "now i wish that i would have said goodbye" makes me think even though it was a give and take relationship, the singer misses his friend. This song was on that disney movie brink.soul skaters
i think it's all about losing friends. i know how it feels
I suppose you could say it's about losing friends, but you have to put it into better context or else you could sem to mean that they are literally lost and therefore dead. I think it's basically about breaking off from a friend who one never really liked in the first place and only wishing one thought to have done it sooner.
It also looks like a pretty one-sided relationship. The singer tries his best to be a good friend, but all the friend does is take it for granted and treat him poorly, and he's finally realizing it.
its more about losing a friend that was a horrible friend, but also about losing a horrible friend that was really good to you in a certain way..trust me..that guy is right next to me eating my food....one day lucas..one day..
Yea its about losing friends..........but in a good way. what he is saying is take a good look at the friends you have and see if they are accepting you for who you are
