Karala Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 ...annoys me to no end. Seriously, you want to find someone like him? And go through another unhappy ending? Get the guy off his pedestal already, please. This song annoys me because this is the stuff people use to wallow in their misery and convince themselves that putting their life on hold is a beautiful, romantic, grand gesture. It's not. Believe me. It's ugly. No one's worth it. Ok, I probably need to not take things so seriousy... But I'm sure you get my point.
A7X Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Totally get what you are saying, there is a lot of music that I don't listen to right now because of the lyrics. They take effect on me and then sometimes dust flies into my eyes, you know, cuz guys don't cry.. lol I can't live without music so it's hard to select what to listen to. Right now I listen to Awolnation over and over again, even though it has some lyrics that are hard, it's a band that I never listened to before so it doesn't make me think of her.
sleepykitten Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I agree-i do really like this song and can listen to it as it doesnt make me think of my ex as he isnt the one that got away so to speak. It actually makes me think of my ex husband who is lovely, we had a "nice" break up, are still friends, he is with someone else, but i truely do love him, I wouldnt want to be with him again as I dont think we were right for each other but if i could find someone who had his qualities and there was a spark and some passion now that would be a great relationship that i hopefully wouldnt f**k up. My break up song for this relationship that brought me here is by Adele-"Rolling in the deep." Made me feel stronger, no tears.
SillyS Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 She says its her pathetic moment, that she felt strong many times after the break up but also rather weak and that this was the example of that. Sure its not good to only listen to that one song, but I guarantee that most of her fans have heard a variety of her songs. I think that is what breaking up is all about, its an emotional rollacoaster. Sometimes we feel strong and determined to weather the storm, and other times we are crying in fetus position over this person that treated us horribly and didn't love us enough anyway. She is just unscripted with that, it's how she really felt and that is sometimes how we feel as well. That perhaps this individual was our chance for happiness and that we could find others, but we might always return to this individual so we prevent ourselves from being happy and that the chance that this could be our own reality is scary and sad. I relate to her song. I think I would find satisfaction in knowing that my current ex found someone that loves him and that he could start a family with this individual and truly make the best of his time on this planet. I wish that for everyone, to achieve some form of happiness and the person I love soon to be loved is no different for me. I take some positive aspects from the song, I need to forgive him and myself in order to give myself a chance at becoming a better person and wishing him the best and hoping he finds whatever he's looking for is part of that letting go and forgiving process. Sorry for the rant:laugh:
