The Used: Blue and Yellow Meaning

Blue and Yellow Lyrics

and it's all in how you mix the two
and it starts just where the light exists
it's a feeling that you cannot miss
and it burns a hole through everyone that feels it

well you're never gonna find it
if you're looking for it
won't come...

   I agree with
   'Love and friendship are complementing to one another. So for some of you to say that its one not the other has never had a laving friendship obviously shared by Bret and Quinn. While some things don't make sense to some of you, it could just be that its a reference that only they would understand.'
   
   and also that maybe it could be about both love and drugs.
   like, Bert loves Quinn, or whoever it is about, like a drug. needs them like a drug.
   but hey, none of us could know for certain, seeing as only Bert knows the real meaning of the song.

   I think this song is about how Bert's girlfriend died and he wanted to help her before something bad happened and he tried to but she wouldn't take his help("should have done something,but I've done it enough"). Also it says that you can't look for love.you have to let it find you ("and you're never gonna find it if you're looking for it,wont come your way"). He's also saying that people told him he was wasting his time with her, but he didn't care ("rather waste my time with you")

   I think the meaning of this song can have 2 possibilities, Being in love and all that deep stuff, or the drug idea. They are both great maybe it should mean something different to people so they can relate to it and feel like someone is there who understands them. How your never going to find love if you go looking for it. and dropping everything for someone because they would rather do nothing with them. as well for the drugs idea....maybe the only thing they have to turn to is drugs. and if you get so addicted and you look everywhere for it you feel like you can't find enough of it. Giving anything and everything to be with them(the drug) because its like the only one who can understand them....

   This song is about LOVE! Whether its bout the love felt between Quinn & Bert as friends or maybe even a relationship with a girl doesn't matter too much because all in all it's bout love shared between two people and wanting to spend as much of your time with them as you can.

   I read an interview and Bert said that the song was about Bert and Quinn's relationship.
   I'm pretty sure the writer of the song would not be wrong about his answer.
   therefore all of those people saying its not about their friendship are wrong.
   kthanksbye.

    This song for the millionth time IS NOT ABOUT KATE whatsoever, for those of you who consider yourself "true" Used you should know Bert wasn't even dating Kate yet, and he wrote the song about his friendship with Quinn.

    I was watching a concert. &he said 'This song is called blue and yellow and it's about love'. Maybe it's about love in the way of a friendship. I dunno. But that's what he says.
    
    This song makes me cry (it remembers me of my ex-boyfriend, the way I see it it's about love but I don't know what Bert was thinking when he wrote it you know what I mean?

    ok this might sound stupid but its what I believe and I think you people are thinking to much about this. Ok, basically, its a love song he falls in love and loves the girl so much that he doesn't want to hurt her in anyway (should've done something but I'd done it enough) he means yelling at her or threatening to break up with her. (by the way you hands were shaking rather waste my time with you) ok this part is about him not wanting to break up with her and she knows he's gonna because she did something wrong and knows he found out so heres this girl her she so scared to lose this guy that her hand are shaking and this guy can't break up with her because he really loves her. He says he'll waste his time with her because he knows these things will keep happening but they'll get through it eventually.
    
    thank you=]

    Okay this song is about love, but mostly the bad side. It's partly sarcastic. Fuck, I'm just gonna break it down.
    
    "and it's all in how you mix the two"
    this is talking about how she mixes the negative feelings with the positive ones, hate and love, happiness and sadness, etc.
    
    "and it starts just where the light exists"
    i'm still confused about this line but I think it might be refering to how things start out good but then fuck up
    
    "it's a feeling that you cannot miss and it burns a hole through everyone that feels it"
    that's simply about the overall bad feelings of love
    
    "well you're never gonna find it
    if you're looking for it
    won't come your way
    well you'll never find it
    if you're looking for it"
    thats about finding true love in people, because real love is never just found, it finds you. or maybe it's talking about finding good in a relationship. If you have to look for something good in your relationship, then there's nothing good about it so you'll never find it
    
    "should've done something but I've done it enough
    by the way your hands were shaking
    rather waste some time with you"
    this is talking about the girl cheating or lying and all that good stuff. 'he should have done but he's done it enough' is saying how he's been through it before and just really doesn't care anymore. Her hands are shaking represents her guilt for lying or cheating showing on the outside, and him saying he'd rather waste his time with her is sarcastic.
    
    "and you never would have thought in the end
    how amazing it feels just to live again"
    this is talking about getting over someone and then falling back in love. If you're with someone in a bad relationship, you never think you'll get over it but when you get over someone, you become happier (hence, living again) then you move on to someone else and its all great at the begining.
    
    "it's a feeling that you cannot miss
    it burns a hole through everyone that feels it"
    this time it's just refering to the line above.
    
    "should've said something but I've said it enough
    by the way my words were faded
    rather waste some time with you"
    pretty much the same thing as him doinf something, but her words being faded means they're so old and cliche that he doesn't even hear them anymore.
    
    well that's it. This song is really set for interpretetion, and it's really general but this is what I got out of it. Hope you agree

    This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

    It's not about kate. Its about his friendship with the beautiful quinn. Heard it straight from the mouth...
    
    (it's all in how you mix the two...)
    bert was the last to join the band and when he did he was crzy wacked on drugs and acted like a jackass, quinn hated him and in turn bert hated quinn back. But them something happened and quinn was there for bert for it, and thus they became best friends which is where they are at today
    (never gonna find it you're looking for it. Wont come your way)
    
    ...Straight from the mouth, yo...

    Should've done something but I've done it enough by the way your hands were shaking rather waste some time with you." This means that what ever he did wasn't enough....And even though he knows its not going to work ....The time spent is good times even if its a waste of time
