In April 2009, We Are the In Crowd's Myspace page was hacked. The hacker deleted all of their friends and music. The music site Absolutepunk.net posted a news article regarding the hacking, and the news post attracted the attention of someone at Hopeless Records who contacted the band shortly after. On November 10, 2009, the group announced their signing with Hopeless Records as "The In Crowd" and released their first single "For the Win" on iTunes. The band changed their name to "We Are the In Crowd" due to trademark issues with a reggae band from the seventies who were also called "The In Crowd"
In February 2009, We Are the In Crowd recorded their debut Hopeless Records EP with producers Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount (All Time Low, Mayday Parade, Jimmy Eat World, Cartel). The EP, titled Guaranteed To Disagree, was released on June 8, 2010.
The music video for "Both Sides of the Story" was officially released on October 15, 2010. The music video for "Never Be What You Want" was released on April 20, 2011. The band performed on the Vans Warped Tour for Summer 2010.
The band entered the studio in early May 2011 to begin recording their full length debut. On August 3, 2011 it was announced the album would be titled Best Intentions and that it would be released on October 4. It debuted on the U.S. Billboard 200 at No. 122.

We Are the In Crowd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
you’re always calling
girl you’re just trippin’
no, I’m just falling
over and over again
this change of heart is just…
It’s just a means to an end
I know I’m crazy
I think I’m done wondering why
You know what you need to say
I haven’t found a melody yet
a melody yet, a melody
All this time
we’ve been crossing off days
on the calendar pages
and all this time
has been wasted
I’m wasted just thinking
that this is the end
I’ve had it up to here with the shit
I’m always calling
could you just call someone else
I bet you think it’s funny how
my voice stands out
when I’m talking to my self
You just keep pushing me
farther and farther away
You were never here
I bet you liked it better that way
There’s really nothing left to say to me
This conversation just ran dry
I know I’m crazy
I think I’m done wondering why
This conversation
I know I’m not a memory yet
a memory yet, a memory
Come on now
won’t you come around baby
We can work it out
but I think I know better than that
this time
You’re just a pretty face
and you’re just a line in a song
This was all wasted
Come on, just face it
The lyrics to "Calendar Pages" by We Are the In Crowd embody the frustration, confusion and heartache that can come with a strained relationship. The song's opening lines, "I've had it up to here with this / You're always calling / Girl you're just trippin' / No, I'm just falling" set the tone for the back-and-forth dynamic between two people who can't seem to see eye-to-eye. The singer acknowledges that their change of heart is a means to an end, suggesting that the relationship has run its course.
The chorus serves as a confession of wasted time, where the singers acknowledges that they've been crossing off days on the calendar pages to no avail. Despite their efforts, the relationship has been wasted and they feel helpless in determining its end.
The bridge highlights the singer's realization that their partner has been pushing them away and that there's nothing left to say. They express a willingness to work things out but ultimately acknowledge that it may be too late to salvage the relationship. The song concludes with the stark admission that this was all a waste and it's time to face it.

I’ve had it up to here with this
I can't take this situation anymore
you’re always calling
you're constantly contacting me
girl you’re just trippin’
you're overreacting
no, I’m just falling
no, I'm just falling in love
over and over again
it keeps happening repeatedly
this change of heart is just…
this change of heart is just temporary
It’s just a means to an end
it's just a way to achieve a certain goal
This conversation just ran dry
we have nothing more to talk about
I know I’m crazy
I know I'm being irrational
I think I’m done wondering why
I think I'm done trying to figure out what happened
You know what you need to say
you know what to say to resolve this
I haven’t found a melody yet
I haven't found the right way to express my feelings
a melody yet, a melody
a way to turn these emotions into a song
All this time
we've spent all this time
we’ve been crossing off days
we've been marking off days on the calendar
on the calendar pages
on the pages of the calendar
and all this time
but despite all this time
has been wasted
it's been a waste
I’m wasted just thinking
I'm exhausted just thinking
that this is the end
that this is the end of our relationship
I’ve had it up to here with the shit
I can't take this anymore
could you just call someone else
could you please just contact someone else
I bet you think it’s funny how
I assume you find it amusing how
my voice stands out
my voice is noticeable
when I’m talking to my self
when I'm talking to myself
You just keep pushing me
you keep pushing me
farther and farther away
further and further from you
You were never here
you were never truly present
I bet you liked it better that way
I assume you preferred it that way
There’s really nothing left to say to me
there's nothing else to say to me
I know I’m not a memory yet
I know I'm not a thing of the past yet
a memory yet, a memory
a thing of the past, a memory
Come on now
let's work this out
won’t you come around baby
won't you come back to me
We can work it out
we can fix this problem
but I think I know better than that
but I don't think that's possible
this time
this time around
You’re just a pretty face
you're just attractive
and you’re just a line in a song
and you're just a lyric in a song
This was all wasted
this was all for nothing
Come on, just face it
let's just accept this
