Misread Lyrics

Artist: Kings Of Convenience

Album : Riot On an Empty Street

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

by Gabriel on 11/26/2008 12:30pm Awesome lyrics
by jared on 12/3/2008 6:06pm I like what they're saying about how sometimes friends use you..
by no one on 12/19/2008 4:51am the song is truly relaxing, but i see a different meaning to it. there seems to be another side. it reminds (for an opinion) me of what happens when you're very close to someone, but in the end it just seems to fall apart. though this is quite unfortunate, it seems to happen to most of us at some point, but that is another part of being human - being misread.
by Emmett on 2/7/2009 12:04pm Amazing track with powerful lyrics. The music and lyrics work well together.
by Feranndo Flaminio on 2/19/2009 2:36pm I love this track so much...It seems to me that you are in window in Rio de Janeiro Sunday afternoon raining...Such Bossa Nova swing !! Congratulations on that music as well.
by deena on 2/26/2009 1:38pm Never can get sick of this song, sweet and simple. Yeah I think 'no-one' is right- and also 'the lonliest people were the ones who always spoke the truth'- good line!..But thats lonely/ alone out of choice right?..that's how I'm taking it.
by Max on 3/1/2009 5:29pm Guys, this is a great song, but it is about friends, and when you tell smb the truth, like to your friend, you may lose him/her. Just because of being misread. You did not mean to say smth just to offend, but you was misread. Simple as that.
by Brian on 3/10/2009 8:11pm Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous song.
by kiss-me on 3/22/2009 10:06am i love this song so muchhhhh
by yılmaz on 3/22/2009 5:44pm müthiş. brilliant. very well.
by Kritter on 4/4/2009 10:15pm It's interesting reading about the different perspectives and interpretations of this song. I felt it had to do with letting go of the expectations we create. Meaning you can't hold onto what you have in that moment for ever. These exchanges in our relationships need to be respected in order to let them go when it is time to end. "what do you know, it happened again" meaning, what do you know, a person has felt sorry for themselves because they had to let go of an experience that made them happy. Things begin and end. I find this song is about respecting this and letting it be. People who admitt this can be seen as "cynical" and can be left lonely because of others fears of this "cynical" person being okay with letting them go. Really they are respecting and accepting the honesty of natures cycles and the gifts it provides at different times, rather than using and abusing for ones personal utilization. Anyways, that's my personal perception. :)
by Adre on 4/21/2009 12:42pm Masterpiece!!!
by frutz on 4/30/2009 1:07pm i find that kritter puts it nicely..
by Pablo on 5/3/2009 3:08pm que buena banda admiro esa cancion de misread soy mexicano de jalisco y los admiro mucho ojala q algun dia buelban a visitar mexico
by denzel on 6/16/2009 12:40pm wow a song dedicated solely to being stuck in the "friend zone"
by vesna on 6/18/2009 3:14am this is an awesome song i love the lyrics too bad the person i want to dedicate this song to wont understand it anyway
by Shikyo on 7/19/2009 9:22am I sense a much more deep meaning in this song than what I see from everyone else. Even the band may not notice it... or I'm crazy.
by Helena on 8/20/2009 1:51pm Beautiful song! I like the lines: "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" The ones who made a difference, by withstanding the indifference... That lines are genius! To be different, and dont care. Just to make a difference, is something really hard. amazing song.
by dexter on 9/21/2009 7:41am one of the most touching songs ever
