Mew – Comforting Sounds Lyrics 17 years ago
I strongly agree with HateSaiko. I believe this song is abot addiction and life-long friends.


I've recently had my best friend of 10+ years resort to that lifestyle, and when I heard this song, I can almost relate any line to our situation.

"If someone else comes, I'd just sit here listening to the drums." If we'd be in an important conversation, her, I guess, 'drug buddies' would call or stop by and always swoop her away into the mindframe, and id be there, in her room, listening to backround music of her television while she got ready to go out.


"It's hard to make sense, feels as if I'm sensing you through a lens." When I see her I don't see who I knew anymore, growing up shes changed into a different person, someone I dont know. Kinda like im watching her, not knowing what do or how to put it. ("It's hard to make sense")

"
I don't feel alright in spite of these comforting sounds you make.
I don't feel alright because you make promises that you break." Her broken promises of how she has her life in control and that everything is alright, and how she promises me she wont do anything to 'hurt' herself. Though, she hasnt told me, I know she has.


"
And probably you know all the dirty shows I've put on.
Blunted and exhausted like anyone.
Honestly I tried to avoid it.
Honestly."


"Into your house, why don't we share our solitude?
Nothing is pure anymore but solitude."
Solitude
Nothing is pure in our relationship anymore but the issolation we have between our worlds.


This song has a real deep sensitivity to my life, it brings up alot of emotional memories.
This reminds me of the dirty times I ignored her because of the path she was going on, or talked bad about what she was becoming, a dirty show. I feel bad about it, i was just so angry at the time, to see this beautiful live-spirited girl become nothing more then a potatoe, there is no good way of putting it. "Blunted and exhausted like anyone." Tired and isolated from her now, I've given up. Does that make me a bad friend? I dont know. All her close friends are exaushted with her too. "like anyone."
