Tonight Alive: Lonely Girl Meaning
Lonely Girl Lyrics
Nothing that you have is ever good enough
And I wont be the one to keep you safe
And I wont be the one who stays the same
You got a lot of nerve and
Looks like the tables turning
And now...

This song is actually about how we all have 'ex-best-friends'. Jenna wrote this about one of her ex best friend and she said this to Kerrang! magazine “It’s me speaking to a friend I no longer speak to. She would always cry out for attention and complain about everything that was wrong in her life, but she wouldn’t help herself or ask for help from anyone else. It was really difficult to be a friend to someone who pushes you away like that, and in the end, she told me to never speak to her again. The song is me closing the book on the friendship.” And explained how this song is relatable to everyone saying “Everyone’s got ex-best-friends, and I’ve found that the reality of growing up is that you leave people behind and people leave you behind. The song’s about coming to terms with that and finding yourself as your own person and letting go of the grudges that in the end do nothing but hold you back. At heart, it’s a coming-of-age song, which is an important event in the lives of everybody.”

Its about how in her mind it seems like everyone is turning their back on her, even though her mom/someone (:p) was on her side all along. While that someone was on her side all along, she was rude and mean to her and didn't care about her as much as he/she cared about her. Now, her friends turned their back on her and she regrets not listening to and being rude to the person who was with her along. And she's a lonely girl... The person who was with her all along is narrating the song and she says "I don't feel sorry for you". And she's making her guilty yet comforted at the same time.
