Wide awake, my mistake, so predictable You were fake, I was great, nothing personal I'm walking, who's laughing now? (Who's laughing, who's laughing now?) I'm wasted, wasting time You talk for hours but you're wasting lines A pretty face but the chase ain't worth the prize I'm gonna break your little heart Watch you take the fall Laughing all the way to the hospital 'Cause there's nothing surgery can do When I break your little heart in two I'm gonna break your little heart in two A party queen, cause a scene, so ridiculous Little dress, maybe less, so conspicuous You're falling, who's crashing now? (Who's crashing, who's crashing now?) I'm wasted, wasting time I'm moving on but you're left behind A pretty face but the chase ain't worth the prize I'm gonna break your little heart Watch you take the fall Laughing all the way to the hospital 'Cause there's nothing surgery can do I'm gonna break your little heart Show you to the door Sew yourself shut and now you're begging for more 'Cause there's nothing surgery can do When I break your little heart in two Don't be so sentimental, no This is love is accidental, so Give it up, this was never meant to be More than a memory for you I'm gonna break your little heart Watch you take the fall Laughing all the way to the hospital 'Cause there's nothing surgery can do (When I break your little heart in two) I'm gonna break your little heart Show you to the door Sew yourself shut, now you're begging for more 'Cause there's nothing surgery can do When I break your little heart in two

    My Interpretation:Right so, I think this alex like this girl, but she was being fake and not being how she really is or hiding her true feelings, But then over time she falls in love with him but he doesn't want her anymore, (i'm walking, who's laughing now). So he's gunna break her heart to get back at her being fake. But when it says this love is accidental it could mean that it was just a one night stand that turned into something more, or he never wanted to fall in love with her anyway.

    Song Meaning:I think she really hurt him, and he's pissed and just wants to get back at her. So he makes her fall in love with him, and then breaks his heart.

    The meaning/message of this song isn't very good, I just like it because it's pretty funny. "There's nothing surgery can do, when I break your little heart in two."

    General Comment: Does anyone else notice all the songs on this cd about partying? Im down to party with ATL anytime! haha


    I think this song is about how alex had a one night stand with a girl and she doesnt realize that he doesnt like her for who she is at all. he just wanted some ass.

    "Don't be so sentimental, no
    This love was accidental, so
    Give it up
    This was never meant to be
    More than a memory for you"

    Now he is saying that he is gonna break her heart when she finds out he is heading out before she wakes up.

    General Comment:fell in love with this song the first time i listened to it.
    it was the one i couldn't wait to listen to before i bought nothing personal and i still love it. :D
    it's definitely about revenge; he's in a relationship that's gone wrong and having problems ("wide awake, my mistake so predictable") and that's he still thinks she's pretty and stuff but she's not worth all the trouble she's caused him ("pretty face but the chase ain't worth the prize") so as revenge he's gonna break her heart.

    love it. :]
    i now plan to do this with a guy who broke my heart and was a total idiot with me a while ago. thanks atl! :D

    General Comment:You were fake, I was great
    Nothing personal

    hahah that and..

    I'm walking
    Who's laughing now?
    (Who's laughing, who's laughing now?)
    I'm wasted, wasting time
    You talk for hours
    But you're wasting lines

    my favorite parts, this song is awesome! one of their best:]

    General Comment:I think the song could be taken two ways...

    1. As Icarus said, he's getting back at someone who was fake.

    2. Someone who's in a relationship, but really doesn't feel very strongly about the person ((and maybe they care about them)). So they're in the relationship, but they're trying to get out of it and it's gonna end up breaking the other person's heart.

    This and "Therapy" are my favorite Nothing Personal songs ((I always seem to end up liking the title songs the best, ha)).

    General Comment:Yupp, I agree with Icarus13!
    It's about a guy who's been used in a one-night stand, perhaps, and now he's getting back at her by breaking her heart once she realizes she really loves him...

    General Comment:I think this song might be about how guys in bands treat girls that want to sleep with them. This part makes me think so

    "Don't be so sentimental, no
    This love was accidental, so
    Give it up
    This was never meant to be
    More than a memory for you"
