Meaning of 'Hit or Miss'

by A New Found Glory

Interpretation

The lyrics of the song 'Hit or Miss' by A New Found Glory are about a relationship that has come to an end. The singer reminisces about the time when he and his partner were together and how everything has changed since his partner is with someone else.

He describes how the needle on his record player is worn out because he has been listening to the same song over and over again since his partner is no longer with him. The long drives home and listening to certain radio stations together are things of the past. The singer admits that he didn't really like it anyway.

He also remembers certain moments in the relationship, like when they wrote their names on the wall or when they discovered that 'Thriller' was their favorite song. These memories are now just memories, as the relationship is over.

The singer wonders if he waited too long to find someone new. He also wonders if it's too late to see his ex-partner again. He's not sure if it's better that the relationship is over or if it doesn't mean anything. He thinks that maybe it wouldn't be so bad if his ex-partner took him back.

The lyrics also express frustration about how many times the singer tried to save the relationship, but it was easy for his ex-partner to lie. He had so many chances, but he turned away and ran away.

Overall, 'Hit or Miss' is about the singer reflecting on the past and wondering if he waited too long to move on and if there's still a chance to repair the relationship.
