Kings Of Convenience - Misread


If you wanna be my friend, you want us to get along.

Please do not expect me to wrap it up and keep it there

The observation I am doing could easily be understood

As cynical demeanour, but one of us misread...

And what do you know, It happened again.


A friend is not a means you utilize to get somewhere

Somehow I didn't notice friendship is an end

What do you know. It happened again.


How come no-one told me all throughout history,

The loneliest people were the ones who always spoke the truth,

the ones who made a difference by withstanding the indifference

I guess it's up to me now, should I take that risk or just smile?


What do you know, It happened again.

What do you know?



"You know, they say the meaning of the song is the meaning to you. To me its not about a girlfriend neccessarily, it's about relationships with people in general. The person this song is about is a very honest and up front person. He has a habit of picking out peoples flaws and letting them know about it with honest intentions, but the other person gets hurt and misunderstands his intentions of trying to be the best friend you'll ever meet. A friend that will be brutally honest simply because of the fact that he wants to make you an even better person. Long story short, he burns a bridge because the other person doesn't get it." One says.



I agree.
