‘My Friends Over You’ – New Found Glory
The song title is misleading, but it’s really about a boy who’s scared to be with the girl he loves, so he’s acting like a twat. Evidence? “You were everything I wanted / but I just can’t finish what I’ve started” aka it’s not you, it’s me. “It’s my fault that it fell apart” aka I literally suck. “I didn’t mean to lead you on” aka I’m just a really shit person and I’m sorry. “I still pick my friends over you” aka I’m scared to commit and feel the warm embrace of your grand, eternal love.
