Matchbox Twenty: Back 2 Good

Sixth track off of the 1996 "Yourself or Someone Like You" album

Lyrics:

It's nothing, it's so normal you
Just stand there I could say so much
But I don't go there cuz I don't want to
I was thinking if you were lonely
Maybe we could leave here and no one would know
At least not to the point that we would think so

Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking about
Somebody else
It's best if we all keep it under our heads
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
But I'm lonely now, and I don't know how
To get it back to good

This don't mean that, you own me
This ain't no good, in fact it's phony as hell
But things worked out just like you wanted too
If you see me out you don't know me
Try to turn your head, try to give me some room
To figure out just what I'm going to do

And everyone here, hates everyone here for doing just like
They do
It's best if we all keep this quiet instead
And I couldn't tell, why everyone here was doing me like
They do
But I'm sorry now, and I don't know how
To get it back to good

Everyone here, is wondering what it's like to be with
Somebody else
Everyone here's to blame, everyone here
Gets caught up in the pleasure of the pain, everyone hides
Shades of shame, but looking inside we're the same, we're
The same
And we're all grown now, but we don't know how
To get it back to good

Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking 'bout
Somebody else
It's best if we all keep this under our heads
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
But it's over now, and I don't know how, it's over now
There's no getting back to good

This...this is the song. This is the ANTHEM of my summer. And I don't even mean that in the positive way that I wished it was. Everything is good now, but for how long?

Matchbox 20, you hit me with this song. You hit hard.

Dad: Is that stuff gonna turn off by itself. Why don't u put on some Sade or Anita Baker?

Me: You don't like my song choices?

@07925cat Drugs and keyboards are bad, mmmkay?

[fallenhard709]

Or maybe its about knowing that the person you're with isn't as good as your ex.

[fallenhard709]

Such a sad song about cheating.
