Jack's Mannequin- Rescued/lyrics

[BoiseFilms]

9 people need to be rescued :P

[Flannels4days]

this song sucks.. im never clicking on a link ever again, just in case that link could possibly bring me back to this page...

[Nycku007]

@Flannels4days u said the song sucks.. not that you don't like it :))

[sourhumanbeing]

saw them live 3 days ago now - best night of my freaking life so far! everything is right in my world atm.

[CrazyInnerChild]

I went to see them live yesterday, Andrew was absolutely amazing!

I wish they had played this, though...

[TheAwesomeLetsPlays]

Aboulutely Amazing Song!

[ainsleycarman]

beautiful. I always return to this song. it's scary how much music affects me. it can literally take u back to a certain time in your life.

[thesexydoonanfan]

@ainsleycarman LITERALLY taking you back to a certain time is called time travel buddy and, sadly, it doesn't exist yet...

[Nycku007]

@thesexydoonanfan why time travel doesnt exist yet? because u never heard of it? ... how stupid

[TheBross33]

8 people were rescued

[lalalaenergizerbunny]

no words can describe how much i love this song

[sourhumanbeing]

absolute favourite song of all time. not just my favourite by Andrew (SoCo or Jack's) but out of any song i've ever heard, i have not heard one that tops this one. <3 <3

[PackAttack419]

@sourhumanbeing

agreed 10,000% sighh

[idontcare2332]

Jack's Mannequin + Something Corporate = orgasm, life, my day, music, just everything, YES.

[alexboutch11]

@ gavwhitehawk

yeah..but me i prefer de part where he sings '' one last time, I'll be strong ''

[scottishgirl96xoxo]

before i was listening 2 this it was raining outside, then when i listened 2 this it started being sunny :)

[yellowsun913]

im following myself just this once... pure magic. <3 jacks mannequin

[arvyknowsbest]

When it's quiet, does she hear me?

[thetman465]

alright guys iv knwon these people scence i was born my dad knows every one in this ban other than the singer for about 19 years the gutairist B.O.B bob has ben bestfriends with my dad scence 3rd grade and jmac his nickname has ben bestfriends with my dad forever

[Rsc018]

Chills, i get chills the whole time while listening to this

[captainoodle]

i loved this album but didn't think much of this song at first. then the girl i like told me how much she loved this song and i took a second look. now its one of my favorites.

[sugarcoatedcomment]

i've always thought the song's just a euphemism for "gtfo, i've moved on"

[ciaraandalana]

I really wish people would stop trying to interprate this! It's a beautiful song, let it mean something to you instead of wondering what it means tto everyone else. And if you wanna tell people what you think it means, say "I think" instead of "it means".

[camilaolivera09]

Spanish please!? :( 

[UChooseK7H]

I rly love this song but I can't quite understand its meaning as well as I'd like to so can someone please elaborate on it? Please ans thank you.

[Warbux182]

@UChooseK7H this song is simply about a relationship in it's final stages. the singer still has feelings for the girl, but he knows it is emotionally draining and he can't take it any longer, so no matter what he can't go back to her

[deathclaw555]

@UChooseK7H To "rescue" means to be with her again..such a beautiful song...

[XxMeMysellfAndIxX]

Lovethissong, its also on the playlist for the sc-fi love story written by stephenie meyer 'the host' cant wait till they make the film the books so sweet. xxxxxxxxx

[rubberguarder]

I can tell shes raising hell to give to me

[ivy91000]

The first time I heard this song it was on my favorite show (ABCFamily's) Kyle XY

^_^

i LOVE THIS SONG !!!! ^_^

It's so beautiful

Thank You so much !!! ^_^

[noijonas]

This could take all year <3 ~~~

[levicall]

what kind of music would this be classified as?

[Indiervana]

@levicall piano rock



[mattmakescovers]

@levicall Soft rock.

[deathclaw555]

@levicall He classifies it as Piano Rock.

[abaffledking]

@levicall Incredible. Haha.

[itvya]

Dude, I love this song because it makes me feel really strong  :) sounds stupid but it's true..imagine to say to the one you love "I prefer not to be rescued by you now" WOOOW love it! :)

[noname1052]

This was one of the first songs I started learning when I started teaching myself piano last year. My then boyfriend showed it to me. We've been broken up for about 3 months now and I thought I was over it... I was wrong. haha

"Say you'll miss me one last time."

I know I miss him, but I wonder if he misses me.

[ScarlettEmpress]

HIs voice has such a vulnerable quality to it yet such strength at the same time... Amazing.

[brilliantmouse3]

cutest. song. ever. check out my song, on my channel?

[fxkxw]

static to the sound of you and i undone for the last time..

[DsHacker14]

"And don't you think

I wish that I could stay

Your lips give you away"

Damn..... I love this :D Lyrical genius. :)

[pineapplesRyummie]

when it's quiet, does he hear me?

[AaahDemons]

I dislike this.

[Glong09]

@AaahDemons then smoke some pot and you will like it....omg

[foreverending1432]

best song on the album.

[RandomlyRae]

Andrew McMahon is the only artist whose music can literally bring me to tears. Every lyric and note is so fucking beautiful. He's a musical genius.

[xBFiNx]

Great song to just relax to.

[19Callum95]

i went on this video from suggestions from foals-spanish sahara, im sorry guys but i much prefer that, check it out but everyone has there different tastes ;)

[ronalddl09]

best song ever. but what happened to the lyrcis?

[MumfordGx]

Andrew McMahon is such a hero. Not only to write and play amazing songs, but to fight his battle through cancer. He's a true survivor and I hope he never ever gives up writing music because his songs are just breath-taking.

[legmeetsbandana172]

freaking amazing band! <3

[mousy0620]

jack's mannequin= <3!! :D

[gobbledigooook]

Two to One

[joseshar]

i'm learning this song on piano so I can sing it to a girl that I think I'm in love with...great song, perfect for our situation too :)

[goshurspecial]

@joseshar just an fyi, you don't 'think' in love, you 'know' it

[joseshar]

@goshurspecial I will in a week :)

[CoonThief]

I've only just discovered this band but they're amazing!

[belleinabox]

For some reason, I always thought Jack's Mannequin was one of those horrible screamo bands I hate, so I never gave his music a chance. I just wish I'd started listening earlier, I love it. <3

[OceansBlue12]

When it's quiet, does she hear me?

[bucky765]

awesome song

[banjojackson2]

"Its unclear, But this may be my last song". what a scary thought!

[quinnalora]

@banjojackson2 he had cancer, so maybe thats why ?

[globetrotternessa]

yeah, hei, great you did this. thank you. without interruptions, awesome ;D

[ilyalanrickman]

The part when he sings 'say you'll miss me one last time and I'll be strong' always touches me so deeply, something about the desperation and note he hits. I listen to the whole song just to hear that peak.

[djluis49]

Nince song..it reminds me Relient K

[savvyandskye]

@djluis49 Relient K and Jack's Mannequin... two VERY awesome bands :)

[MyKonstantine04]

I can feel her

She's dying just to keep me cold

I'm finally numb

So please don't get me rescued

-Love you, Andrew! ♥

[senpaigarr]

Love this song :)

[MusicIsInMyBlood1100]

I love Jack's Mannequin sooo much!

These songs are some of the best songs I've heard in my life! :)

[CCChhRRRiiZZZ]

kyle xy :]

[151kny]

my all time fav. song between SC and JM

[minabug13]

your lips give you away..amazing. :) <3

[cubicj2k]

I consider this my favorite track of Jack's Mannequin. I first heard this song over 2 years ago and I still love it now. I wish Andrew would continue making songs like this. Or at least like Hammers and Strings, which I think is another beautiful track.

And I prefer this album more than The Glass Passenger. =)

[KelsandEmma]

Andrew is like, my hero!

I love him and his songs so much!<3

They're so beautiful and inspiring! :)

[AmyChris04]

Such a gorgeous song.. both musically and lyrically

Fave part: "And oh say you'll miss me one last time -- I'll be strong"

love him.

[NyloNala]

love it : )

[dover166]

amazing song, very real, has alot of feeling, you can tell its a great song in the first 2 secs. and its just..idk amazing =D very relatiable, good song!!

[nayzany]

This is so sad...

[ddddirtbiker]

my sisters friend loves this song

[theohmightyniffum]

Thank's for sharing.

[Snipersheart]

one of my favorite songs in the world

[danceismything2]

me too

[GabbieChaosx]

all of his songs are so beautiful.

[mrlarsonboy]

best. song. ever.

[gavwhitehawk]

The part where he sings "your lips give you away" is the best part of the whole song.

Don't you think?

[jeffreyRAWKS12798]

@gavwhitehawk Yeeess <3

[samanthakespinoza]

@gavwhitehawk That, and the part where he sings, "Say you'll miss me one last time, I'll be strong." Ahhh, gives me chills.

[supergirlcullen1]

@gavwhitehawk

I really do think so

[911happymonkeyface]

@gavwhitehawk yes!!!

[ronalddl09]

@gavwhitehawk noo. my fav part is the beggining "two to one"

[redroxy2010]

@gavwhitehawk love it

[Noellenc]

@gavwhitehawk Yes, wow, I would never have thought so many people would agree. I think it's because it breaks off from there :) .... I also like, "I'm following myself just this once. I got spun, it appears you're spun as well, it happens when you pay attention."

[rubberguarder]

@gavwhitehawk shes raising hell to give to me.

[idontcare2332]

@rubberguarder Yeah that's my favorite part. No. This whole fuckin song is my favorite part.

[rubberguarder]

@idontcare2332 haha yeah agreed

[softballcatcher]

jack's mannequin plays some of the best music i have ever heard in my life. it's so pure and real. a rarity in today's music industry. i heard them live and i literally had chills the whole time. can't wait for them to come back to st louis!

[ImALIttleproduction]

@softballcatcher oh my gosh i saw them live in st louis too they were amazing! i hope they come back soon!

[littletiptoe]

Beautiful!

[monkeysrule445]

really beautiful <3

[raever13]

no offense andrew but this is my all time fav.. hands down. i love it. makes me remember every day why I've given .. things up. and why I never died and am still here

[4youmyheartbeats]

wow this must be the first person that heard this pure. I could sit here and listen to him for hours until i fell asleep listening to his voice. I really like him as a artist. <3

[coelizzzle]

i love this song.. and all jack's mannequin songs. andrew really has a talent for writing. i love jack's mannequin! (: <3

[BobbyIsMiiSpecial]

This is a beautiful song <3 I have never heard him before, my sister just told me to listen to him and I am so glad she did. His voice is so pure (: xx

[MarianaFromMars]

This song is amazingly beautiful... <3

[supaayana]

hes just...the best. its impossible. his songs mean soo much. i love this guy

[soxeyer]

This guy is just great... A close friend of mine is battling Leukemia and I beleive he can make it just like jack :)

[santilovex3]

shivers. all the time from his music.

pure artist, he is.

[ghuuddaa]

Speak like Yoda you do. Pure artist he is, though. Agree with you, I do.

[santilovex3]

@ghuuddaa :) ahaha yess.

[DanielleTisdale]

he survived leukemia. <3

i love how strong he is. :)

[Hamsterbacke09]

I'm speechless.

[Trae2341]

this song reminds me of her :(

[RoamingIdiots]

great song that poor guy was in so much pain but was still a great musician

[broskihanNBD]

its funny that he wrote songs like this and Watch the Sky BEFORE he had cancer. just goes to show how great of a musician he is

[krissylynne14]

I was thinking the EXACT same thing.

[sissiegurl]

He had Cancer? :O

[liddoxpenguin]

@sissiegurl leukemia. they caught it earlier, so he was able to get it removed, but yes he had cancer. i think that's why he originally took an indefinate break with Something Corporate and a couple of years later formed Jack's Mannequin. Both are very great bands, I recommend "As You Sleep" which is my favorite. :)

[broskihanNBD]

he was diagnosed the same week he released Everything in Transit, thats why The Glass Passanger is such an intense album

[broskihanNBD]

read up...

[AllTheSmallThingsx]

he still does.

[jordyxx08]

He had leukemia and actually had somewhat slim chances of living. But he made it because he didn't consider dying an option.

Bless him. <3

You should order a DVD they released on his battle with cancer called Dear Jack. I almost cried.

[galvangalvan]

im getting next week 2:1 tatooed on my wrist for this song.

[nerakate]

I don't know the full meaning of 2:1

or if it's meaningful in this song

but if it's the ratio in the second verse

it's two to none

if it's a different reason please don't flag me

[ilovemybaileydog]

I think those are the odds he has of being rescued from the situation. At first it looked dim, then he realized that it wouldn't ever happen. That's what I got.

[broskihanNBD]

i just noticed something funny.

he goes "And there this was

Hiding at the bottom of your

Swimming pool some September"

and 2:1 is the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen in water.

sorry for gettin all scientific but i wanted to share :P

[relicman5]

i can relate to him because my best freind has serious skin cancer i pray she makes it

[Inspirationontheline]

i want to be rescued.......................­...

[SpayceManSAM]

he was amazing live.

[AfrinonM]

Most incredibly true.

[danceitup224]

i love ALL his songs! and im glad he is ober having cancerrr

[armorforsleepbecky]

Andrew is such an inspiration and such kind hearted guy. :D He is just so cool. Can't wait til Dear Jack comes out. It's going to be heart wrenching, but I am so glad his story ended happy and he is hear to tell about it and give support to those who are battling cancer as he did.

[leelou7420]

i absolutely love him!!!.....and i have great taste in music:)

[sourcrouse101]

Great Song:] He Has An Amazing Voice.

[mysteryriderca]

why do people care so much what a bunch of people say on youtube?? they want to write their opinion and want people to think they actually care. People stop showing them that you care about what they say

btw, a very good song!

[Zenaaaah]

Lol I care about this opinion..

[remon5]

amazing

[cajaslollylops]

the start of this song sounds so much like dashboard confessional to me. anyways i love this song x 1.26 million

[wheresomar]

wow. just beautiful.

[DyingWithYouNextToMe]

He's saying, that this relationship is taking too much of him. & as much as he wants to fix it, he can't. Because it won't last long, and he needs to do whats right for the both of them.

"Roads that lead away from this

I'm following myself just this once"

I think he means if they go their seperate ways, then it would be easier to get over each other. He doesn't want her to fix it, or rescue him, because leaving is the right thing to do.

Thats how i see it anyway <3

amazing song <3

JM<33

[jostspaceship]

When he did this live, he said this was pretty much conveying the words used when breaking up over the phone, and how he was sure that he'd hear them again sometime...

[YourEyesAreMyEscape]

love this song<3

[JesKimBar]

I reckon it means that he's in love with this girl, but he's finally gotten used to the idea of getting over her, and that as much as he loves her, it would be too hard to go through the pain of losing her again.

[NightSky777]

belenMartini, Hey, nice sound, and although it's just the Cover , great job with adding the Lyrics, nice --Thanks !

[TheWildJune]

"And don't you think I wished that i could stay..."

So beautiful and deep.. =)

[BbyGirlLovee]

one word, beautiful ...

[yesiamrookie]

what does this song mean?

[FOOlZGiRL14]

Hes pretty much saying that he wishes he could fix it and make it better, but he knows even if he does fix it, it wont be worth it, cause it wont last long... I think xD

[rageatm1154]

ohh ok... thank you your sooo helpful... ;) love ya

[FOOlZGiRL14]

love you too. ;]

[twilight0sylum0forme]

i like ur view, i think he's saying that he's dug himself a little too deep this time, and he knows he'll just pull her in too if she tries to help, so he's saying goodbye. i love to see it when people say what they think the song is about!

[twilight0sylum0forme]

thats for you to figure out. its what people want it to mean. for some people it can be talking about a break up, for others just sadness. the comments below yours are what its about.

[joshgrefer]

i love this band

[PurtiiDollx3]

The lyrics are beautiful. This song is really touching. <3

[100blueeyedboy]

wow. this is the first time i've listened to this band after my friend told me about them. it's so emotional. so beautiful. just wow.

[LonghornBabe11]

this is such an old song, but still lovely :] Everytime he plays it at a show it's beautiful, Andrew is too looked over, he's such an amazing artist.

[basketballzach53]

i found out what this songs about..

[xenopheno19]

Andrew Mcmahon is my hero.

[Blakexy1125]

kyle xy forever
