What does the song miserable at best by mayday parade mean?

Answer 1

The song miserable at best is written by a guy who's band was about to sign with Atlantic Records, the same Label that Mayday Parade is signed to, but to be signed a band has to be together for over 2 years, to show stability, but anyways, they were going to use Miserable at Best as their first single but once Atlantic Records gained rights to the song, they decided to give it to Mayday parade.

The song it's self is about this guy who wrote it and his girlfriend (whose name isn't Katie) and he was going off to the military, and the Ocala Military base (ocala is calling) and they were together for 4 years, and he was only gone for 4 months and she cheated on him, and so the beginning is sarcasm "Katie don't cry, i know, you're trying your hardest, but the hardest part is letting go of the nights we shared, ocala is calling" the song is pretty much how he can't trust her again, even though he loves her so much, and that she promised that everything was going to be okay, she still ended up cheating.
