Finally! I thought I was the only one who felt this way! Everyone I knew loved the song, and played it 24/7. I couldn’t grasp how such a song could make it out to mainstream. It was a quite frustrating experience. Thank you! It is great to know that someone somewhere shares the same feelings as me.

Hey I just stumbled on in here from somewhere in the internet and wanted to say THANK YOU for writing this. I was thinking the exact same thing while being force-fed this song alll summer. Can you imagine how stupid someone would look if they said all of these things to a person?? Such a pathetic song.

I don’t know, Brandon, coming from the band that wrote “Dirty Little Secret” and “My Paper Heart” I really don’t think the Rejects’ forte is subtlety.

What a lovely analogy. I don’t know what’s considered emo and what’s not these days, but I can only assume these all american rejects (who aren’t at all big in the UK…I wonder why…) are trying to fit into this rather strange category, with their supposed “deep and meaningful” lyrics. Kill them all I say!

What makes you think “And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I’m lying” is a “PSYCH” jokes?

Couldn’t that be the clue that the writer intends exactly what you say–that the guy is pissed off at his ex because he still wants her? Songwriters do that sort of thing.

Just throwing it out there.
