Katie, don't cry, I know
You're trying your hardest
And the hardest part is letting go
Of the nights we shared
Ocala is calling and you know it's haunting
But compared to your eyes, nothing shines quite as bright
And when we look to the sky, it's not mine, but I want it so
Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I know he's there and)
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(While across the room he stares)
I bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my girl to dance, she'll say yes
Because these words were never easier for me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable at best
You're all that I hoped I'd find
In every single way
And everything I would give
Is everything you couldn't take
Cause nothing feels like home, you're a thousand miles away
And the hardest part of living
Is just taking breaths to stay
Cause I know I'm good for something
I just haven't found it yet
And I need it [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/mayday_parade/miserable_at_best.html ]
So, let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I know he's there and)
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(While across the room he stares)
I bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my girl to dance, she'll say yes
Because these words were never easier for me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable at best
Ladada ladada ladadaoh ohhh
And this will be the first time in a week
That I'll talk to you
And I can't speak
It's been three whole days since I've had sleep
Cause I dream of his lips on your cheek
And I got the point that I should leave you alone
But we both know that I'm not that strong
And I miss the lips that made me fly
So, let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I know he's there and)
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(While across the room he stares)
I bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my girl to dance, she'll say yes
Because these words were never easier for me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable
And I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable
And I can live without you but
Oh, without you I'll be miserable at best...
Well the lead singer (derek) was going out with this girl names katie. While he was away on tour katie met this guy named mike and she ended up cheating on derek in every way possible... And then when he was coming home from a very stress full concert derek knew all along that she was cheating on him and katie finally fessed up to him about mike. So derek as in the song loved her so much he had to let her go so she could be happy. He knew he could live without her just would be miserable... But it was for the best of katie

This song truly means something to me, i cheated unintentionally, never meant to happen and ever since ive been wanting her back, goingon a whole year, been through failing realationships because of how i feel. Anyways this song reminded me of what i did and i love it because it will always remind me of her. Without her i will be miserable at best

The second verse is exactly that feeling that everyone talks about relating to and it's my favorite part of the song. The first time i heard it, i cried because it's so sweet and i could tell he really loved her.
As much as i love mayday parade & this song, i don't think it's their best. But i understand a lot of people can relate to it, :/ i think it's adorable.
Wow the lead singer derek (am i right? ) was so in love with this girl to the point of just giving up on her? And giving her to someone who stole her from him such a nice guy but i would even do that my first gf break up with me saying she has someone new because it was a long distance relationship i know all along it was bound to be broken even thou were at the same school in high school and were constantly seeing each other i never thought that she would cheat on me!! And that was my first heart break my first love that broke my heart!! When i heard this song i remember her and all the lies and promises she said to me and then when we meet up the only thing coming up on my mind was forgive her!! I cant even be mad at her!!
Sorry for the long comment love the band the song and eventually i love the people here for discussing what this song is all about haha i wish they made more relating songs like this good luck may day parade!!!
Sad if you can relate to it. I relate to it cuz i have been on both sides... Katie and the singer. Over the summer i broke up with my boyfriend of 8 months and well it was horrible... Then over the summer i was broken up with by another guy... Absolutly horrible.
Oh and just saying this, but it takes a lot for me to cry. I've been through a lot, so my heart is stone cold at times. I can really relate to the song.
