Discover the story of the song > Unsubstantiated Rumors – Against Me

The lyrics talk about not wanting to talk about something because the protagonist doesn't think their friend would understand. They mention how things can go wrong even when they had good intentions. The protagonist talks about a situation where things have gotten messed up and they feel stuck. They talk about how they get pushed back every time they try to move forward. They also mention that they have nowhere else to go and start lying. Despite all of this, they say they have no regrets and would do it all over again. They describe their feelings as being dead.
