This became more apparent when his wife filed for divorce and his music became harder than it had been and his lyrics became more personal and harsh. He played keys on one New Found Glory song and often joined them on stage during their Back to Basics tour in the spring of 2005. More recently, Dewees has announced playing keyboard on some of My Chemical Romance's new cd. When asked about "Reggie" he said that once the new MCR cd comes out, I will be touring with them and become a full blown member of MCR.
The fifth studio album titled Last Stop: Crappy Town was released June 17, 2008.
What's Wrong
Reggie and the Full Effect Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I knew you never could replace
What you mean to me
You said it was the first time
But now it's just the worst time
For you and me
So long, I finally figured out what was wrong
So long, I finally figured out what was wrong
What's wrong (cont.)
Was wrong
Was wrong
The first day that I met you there
I never thought you'd really care
About me
So now that I'm the old one
You said you see a new one
Instead of me
So long, I finally figured out what was wrong
So long, I finally figured out what was wrong
Was wrong
Was wrong
So let me dry your eye
I'll say things you've never heard before
You know that I will try
Wait and see, you know
(3X) So long, I finally figured out what was wrong
The lyrics of Reggie and the Full Effect’s song ‘What’s Wrong’ is about a relationship that has gone sour. The singer recounts meeting the person they are singing about and knowing that they could never be replaced in their life. However, the person is now saying that they have met someone new and that they are no longer interested in the singer. The song has a melancholic tone and it seems like the relationship has ended for good.
Throughout the song, the singer is trying to understand what went wrong in the relationship. The line “So long, I finally figured out what was wrong” is repeated multiple times, emphasizing the need for closure and understanding. The singer seems to be in denial for most of the song, unsure of why their partner has moved on. However, towards the end they take on a more assertive tone, offering comfort and saying things their partner has never heard before.
Overall, ‘What’s Wrong’ is a sad song about the end of a relationship, where one person has moved on and left the other person behind. The singer is struggling to understand what went wrong and is looking for closure.
