don't fuck a good friend

[isolationeitheror]

@icemangcoy i wont. that would be near impossible anyway.

[jgnet808]

This song to me is about a guy who is friends with a girl but really likes her

[nizzle23]

@icemangcoy  sexually or figuratively?

@dairylandbogurt

Exactly! And see, we get along just fine for internet strangers. Even if it's just for a couple seconds of the day I'm your new best friend lol.

If you want my full interpretation you can check it out on songmeanings . com. Just look up the song and you'll find my comment under Aquarius121 :)

@kmacmuzikmafia27 You read my mind man. I have more in common with you than any friend I've ever had... N I don't particularly like being a loner either; but it beats hanging out with people who I despise, with their big egos and their happy outlooks on life... I'd take being an anti-social over that any day lol

@dairylandbogurt

Same here...once the weed is gone it's like you have nothing in common with them anymore :/

It's not like I enjoy being lonely, it's just sometimes the effort is too much. And people can be clingy, lol. I guess we're antisocial.

@kmacmuzikmafia27 Well said! That's how I felt with all of my friends, like I'd much rather be alone... Finally they've left me alone for the most part after I quit smoking pot and became a bit of an asshole...

@jgnet808

i wanna thumbs up this a million times...cus its exactly what i think of when i listen to this song...

[staronciceli]

the friend-zone anthem

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

I think it's about being too cowardly to tell someone you're "just not that into" them, for a friendship or anything else.

You avoid their calls, your mind's not present when you talk, you're always too "busy" to hang. You're trying to subtly give them the hint, but you're too "nice" to tell them straight-forwardly.

It's like the awkward non-friendship anthem lol.
