This was all you, none of it me You put your hands on, on my body and told me Mmm You told me you were ready For the big one, for the big jump I'd be your last love everlasting you and me Mmm That was what you told me
I'm giving you up I've forgiven it all You set me free-ee
Send my love to your new lover Treat her better We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts We both know we ain't kids no more Send my love to your new lover Treat her better We gotta let go of all of our ghosts We both know we ain't kids no more
I was too strong you were trembling You couldn't handle the hot heat rising (rising) Mmm Baby I'm still rising I was running, you were walking You couldn't keep up, you were falling down (down) Mmm Mmm there's only one way down
I'm giving you up I've forgiven it all You set me free-ee, oh
Send my love to your new lover Treat her better We gotta let go of all of our ghosts We both know we ain't kids no more Send my love to your new lover Treat her better We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts We both know we ain't kids no more
If you're ready, if you're ready If you're ready, I am ready If you're ready, if you're ready We both know we ain't kids no more No, we ain't kids no more
I'm giving you up I've forgiven it all You set me free
Send my love to your new lover Treat her better We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts We both know we ain't kids no more Send my love to your new lover Treat her better We gotta let go of all of our ghosts We both know we ain't kids no more
If you're ready, if you're ready (Send my love to your new lover) If you're ready, I am ready (Treat her better) We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts We both know we ain't kids no more If you're ready, if you're ready (Send my love to your new lover) If you're ready, I am ready (Treat her better) We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts We both know we ain't kids no more
Here is a song that I see in my sitch. Being treated like somebody that she used to know.....even after 20 years together. But I see it both ways as I am find some relief in my sitch as my MR may not have been as happy as I would have thought now that I am standing on the outside looking back i.
Gotye (featuring Kimbra)- Somebody that I used to know.
Now and then I think of when we were together Like when you said you felt so happy you could die Told myself that you were right for me But felt so lonely in your company But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness Like resignation to the end, always the end So when we found that we could not make sense Well you said that we would still be friends But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing And I don't even need your love But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough No you didn't have to stoop so low Have your friends collect your records and then change your number I guess that I don't need that though Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over But had me believing it was always something that I'd done But I don't wanna live that way Reading into every word you say You said that you could let it go And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
But you didn't have to cut me off Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing And I don't even need your love But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough No you didn't have to stoop so low Have your friends collect your records and then change your number I guess that I don't need that though Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody (I used to know) Somebody (Now you're just somebody that I used to know)
Somebody

So, now for something completely different. I would say I listen to a lot more aggressive music than ya'll. And, compared to many of your posts, many of you won't like the musical style, but give the lyrics a read.
My additions are: Hatebreed - I Will Be heard (What I want) Spoken - Calm The Storm (What I need) Demon Hunter - I Will Fail You (What I do)
M:36 W:31 D:12 M: 8/9/10 ILYBNILWY/"want space": 2/14-ish/16 W moved out 5/24/16.
Not sure if this was mentioned yet, but... Puddle of Mudd - She F**king Hates Me! LA LA LA LA! (okay, It's an absolutely horrible song, but still... humorous)

I actually liked the song. Power pop. nice. I think the video is a bit misogynistic and cynical. It gives the impression that all women are manipulative liars. As a LBS, I really need to avoid this kind of message - I am sure you can understand why. Also, I don't think my WW hates me - despite all outward appearances to the contrary. I think deep down she hates herself. The fog obscures good judgement.
Collin I did not have time to give a listen to your choices. Hopefully I'll get around to it.
SH_, GOTYE's song, although overplayed on the radio, is definitely on my playlist. In fact, I can't stop listening to it. He captures the pain, disbelief and shock of the LBS very nicely.
Darnes, I just love Adele's voice. Almost every song of hers seems to resonate with the DB community. She must have had tons of rough relationships because she sure likes writing about them. I say we make her the honorary DB spokesperson. Who's with me?
Omigosh! I was listening to the U2 album entitled "War". Had not heard it in a long time. First of all it is an amazing album, filled with raw passion and conviction. Very empowering. That, alone, is reason to listen to it. But as I was listening to the song entitled "Like a song" certain lyrics just jumped out at me - from my DB perspective:
"Angry words won't stop the fight Two wrongs won't make it right A new heart is what I need Oh God, make it bleed Is there nothing left..."
"And we love to wear a badge, a uniform And we love to fly a flag But I won't...let others live in hell As we divide against each other And we fight amongst ourselves Too set in our ways to try to rearrange Too right to be wrong, in this rebel song"
I have no idea what Bono had in mind when he wrote this (I assume he was the songwriter), but it really resonated with me as I struggle with anger, choosing righteousness over happiness, etc...
I've been listening to some great tunes today and was reminded of this thread... I love this thread!
Muse - Dead Inside On the outside you're ablaze and alive / But you're dead inside
Coldplay - The Scientist (just listen, both sides, LBS wanting to start over, WW wanting explanations that will never be heard)
Tell me you love me Come back and haunt me Oh and I rush to the start Running in circles, chasing our tails Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy Oh it's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be so hard I'm going back to the start
Bon Iver - Skinny Love when you know things are destined to fail, and how the pain of past relationships can haunt new ones
And something for fun: The Avett Brothers - Divorce Separation Blues I've got the tough education No celebration Bad communication Worse interpretation Love deprivation Pain allocation Soul devastation Cold desolation Life complication Resuscitation Divorce separation blues

Natus - I'm glad you enjoyed my last few songs... I think you were the one that posted about some metal/rock: Tesla - Breakin' Free I'm done with swallowing my pride And the truth bein' denied You know it makes me sick how you?re so quick to always criticize You never find fault in yourself You're always blamin' someone else When you know that it's you, and it?s true, that with you, It's just a livin? hell....
I don't care what you say Ya better get out of my way I'm tired of wastin' my time, Now I'm breakin' free...
