You were the last good thing about this pa...

I think that this song is about a desperate attempt of a guy that can't get a girl so he gets all defensive.

I think it's about a girl that Pete likes, but doesn't like him back.

The guy she likes, is a fake pretty boy sort of guy, who isn't some one she wants to be with.
ex.: "You Need Him .. I could Be Him
I could be an accident but I'm still tryin
And that's more than I can say for him"

It's really about just letting her know that hes better than this other guy.
Ex.: "Where is your boy tonight?
I hope he is a gentleman
maybe he won't find out what I know:
You were the last good thing about this part of town"

The song is about a guy that will do anything to get the girl of his dreams. He talks crap about the guy she is currently with to get her to dump him. Then he sais good things about her to realize hes the one

I think that this song is about a girl that has a boyfriend who doesn't apreciate her and is never there for her. (Where is your boy tonight?) and she cheats on him with with FOB (maybe he won't find out what I know) and ends up regretting it. Afterwards FOB ends up liking her (You Need Him .. I could Be Him I could be an accident but I'm still tryin And that's more than I can say for him)

I think that it is about a girl that he likes a lot, but she likes another guy who doesn't notice her and doesn't think of her at all. All the while he knows how great she is and how much he could fill that void that the other guy has left.

I think that this song happens to be about a guy that likes a girl, and that girl likes a jerk, and he wants to be that guy so that he can be with him
ex.-you were the last good thing about this part of town
-I'm willing to take my chances on the hope that you hate him more than you notice I wrote this for you
-You need him. I could be him...

I think it's about one of them loving a girl, yet she only sees them as a friend. The guy she's dating is an absolute asshole, he knows he could be the gentleman. He knows they would be perfect, if only she knew.

I think it's about Pete liking a girl who has a boyfriend that cheats on her. "where is your boy tonight" means that he's out with some other girl "I hope he is a gentlemen" is a sarcastic way of saying that he's seeing the other girl. "maybe he won't find out what I know, you were the last good thing about this part of town" is that Pete hopes the other guy won't love her as much as he does, because then Pete won't stand a chance.

This song is about a guy that is sure he lost the love of his life and he is jealous that she moved on with her life and he can't.

I think it's about a guy who was cheated on and he's both angry and has a 'good ridance' attitude. The chorus is kind of sarcastic. But at the same time, he's asking himself what's wrong with him and why he wasn't good enough and he wishes he had her back.

Actually on Take this to your grave the majority of the songs are about his ex girlfriend who cheated on him with two of his friends in one weekend. I think it mostly means is why does she choose to cheat on him when he can give her more

I think that this song is about a guy who really likes this girl but she doesn't know it and is dating another guy. That guy that she is dating is goin around cheatin on her and she doesn't know it. The guy that likes this girl is tryin 2 prove 2 her that she deserves better and that he could be that guy that could treat her better. This is one of their easier songs to interpret!lol!

This song is clearly about a best friend (girl) that the narator is in love with, but the person he likes is already involved in a relationship. 'maybe he won't find out what I know: you were the last good thing about this part of town' suggests that the narrator thinks that the person's partner isn't good enough for her and that she deserves better, another line that backs this statement up is 'but I'm still trying and that's more than I can say for him'
'someday il appreciate and value' suggests that he hopes that he can someday appriciate that they are best friends and that she wants nothing more but he knows it won't come easialy.
'he won't find out' (background voices) suggests the concience of the girl when she is choosing to cheat on her boyfriend with her best friend or not to.

Mine is a mixture of many other interpretations. I think it about a guy who likes a girl who is dating/in love with an asshole who is unfaithful but she pretends not to see it, and the first guy feels he would be better than the asshole she is with because he really cares about her unlike the asshole she is with.

OK, this song is really about a guy (not naming anyone even though it's probably Pete) who likes this one girl but he can't have her because she so caught up with this one guy who doesn't diserve her and uses her, but the other guy is trying to make her see that he's a way better choice for a boyfriend.
