Mollyanna Posted January 1, 2007 Posted January 1, 2007 Just heard this song and it could not have fit me better if I had written it. Kelly Clarkson - Addicted Lyrics It's like you're a drug It's like you're a demon I can't face down It's like I'm stuck It's like I'm running from you all the time And I know I let you have all the power It's like the only company I seek is misery all around It's like you're a leech Sucking the life from me It's like I can't breathe Without you inside of me And I know I let you have all the power And I realize I'm never gonna quit you over time It's like I can't breathe It's like I can't see anything Nothing but you I'm addicted to you It's like I can't think Without you interrupting me In my thoughts In my dreams You've taken over me It's like I'm not me It's like I'm not me It's like I'm lost It's like I'm giving up slowly It's like you're a ghost that's haunting me Leave me alone And I know these voices in my head Are mine alone And I know I'll never change my ways If I don't give you up now It's like I can't breathe It's like I can't see anything Nothing but you I'm addicted to you It's like I can't think Without you interrupting me In my thoughts In my dreams You've taken over me It's like I'm not me It's like I'm not me I'm hooked on you I need a fix I can't take it Just one more hit I promise I can deal with it I'll handle it, quit it Just one more time Then that's it Just a little bit more to get me through this I'm hooked on you I need a fix I can't take it Just one more hit I promise I can deal with it I'll handle it, quit it Just one more time Then that's it Just a little bit more to get me through this It's like I can't breathe It's like I can't see anything Nothing but you I'm addicted to you It's like I can't think Without you interrupting me In my thoughts In my dreams You've taken over me It's like I'm not me It's like I'm not me

FallenTree Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 I think in lyrics usually, but I hadn't heard this song yet. I'm a hardcore Bright Eyes fan, and I've found numerous songs/lyrics that seem to relate. I recently wrote a "year in review" based on songs/lyrics that related to each month (which of course involved the relationship & the breakup). Some of my favorites: "Your Ex Lover is Dead" by Stars It's nothing but time and a face that you lose I chose to feel it and you couldn't choose I'll write you a postcard I'll send you the news From a house down the road from real love... Live through this, and you won't look back... Live through this, and you won't look back... Live through this, and you won't look back... There's one thing I want to say, so I'll be brave You were what I wanted I gave what I gave I'm not sorry I met you I'm not sorry it's over I'm not sorry there's nothing to save Don't be fooled by the title; no deaths occurred. However, this seems to illustrate how I felt then. "Kill" by Jimmy Eat World So go on love Leave while there's still hope for escape Got to take what you can these days There's so much ahead So much regret I know what you want to say I know it but can't help feeling differently I loved you, and I should have said it But tell me just what has it ever meant I can't help it baby, this is who I am (am) Sorry, but I can't just go turn off how I feel (feel) You kill me, you build me up, but just to watch me break (hey hey, hey hey) I know what I should do, but I just can't walk away This is one I just recently got into. It just is exactly how I felt then also and pretty much right to the point. "The Scientist" by Coldplay Nobody said it was easy It’s such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be this hard Aww take me back to the start I was just guessin’, At numbers and figures, Pullin’ the puzzles apart This breakup previously mentioned had occurred in April; however, we still somewhat acted like we were together all summer. Finally, we spoke about this, & it was almost like a second breakup. It sucked ass. "Weather Reports" by Bright Eyes so i let my hair down for the second time now, for the final time, now i had my fun. but there's no returning from the places we've been, just repeat our slogan, never again. This is referring to the fact that I cannot ever return to past relationships, no matter how much I would like to. It was time to move on. "It's Cool; We Can Still Be Friends" by Bright Eyes Yeah, you still kiss me sometimes, but it's just on the cheek You pull away so easily And I still call you, but I get your machine And we go to dinner, but you won't hold my hand We sit at the same table, but we don't play with our feet Yeah, we still go to dinner sometimes, but we don't sneak a kiss When the waitress turns around This refers to how it is when one remains friends with a former boyfriend. *I know, this is kind of nerdy...but I love it.
