Default – The Way We Were Lyrics 15 years ago
I think it's two very strong people in the relationship with a lot of pride. In my opinion, it seems like something happened that has made them start fighting constantly and neither will back down bc of too much stubborn ass pride. The writer is starting to notice that with the constant fighting they are falling out of grace with each other and this could be the beginning of the end of the relationship, and bc of stubborn ass pride from these two strong people when one walks away the other won't chase them - "watched the other walk away, could not stay, I can't believe we give up so easy". Now when she walks away he really misses the love in the relationship, "don't you miss the way we were, don't you wish we had made that turn( one of them turning around from walking away)." and the writer knows when they would talk shit to each other sometimes it was meant when said, but it was never worth saying. And looking back on the fighting, he doesn't know how hard he really tried to save the relationship and he doesn't know how much she tried but he does know they don't deserve to lose each other.

Pretty much, they started playing stupid games with their emotions and they really wish they could go back to the way they were.
That is what I think anyway lol.

Foo Fighters – Stranger Things Have Happened Lyrics 16 years ago
My real father left when i was about 5 or 6 and my mother hates him. The 1st stanza reminds me of the appartment me and my mom lived, where my dad left my mom. The 2nd stanza is when memories of my father leaving started kicking in and i realized how much i wanted him. The 3rd stanza is really how much i wanted to get to sit down after a decade and get to know and meet my dad. And the chorus "You were not alone dear loneliness...Oh,Oh." is when i tried to convince him that he was never really alone because i had been in this apartment waiting for him forever. "You'll dream about somewhere. Asmoke will fill the air." is my father dreaming about somewhere better he could be instead of with me. "As I lay awake and wait for you to walk out the door." because i knew he always would. "I can change" I blamed his absence on myself. "I can Change" My mom blamed herself for his AWOL attitude, crying for days and days and days on end for something she couldn't prevent. "I can change" I said to myself and wondered why I need to be the one changing.
I watched my mom cry for too long for me to even express and realized why she hates him today and I figured the chorus of this song would be the only thing worth telling him one day.

"You were not alone
Dear loneliness" he was the only one that was ever good enough for him.

"You forgot
But I remember this" My mother

"Oh stranger stranger
Stranger things have happened, I know" He is a complete stranger to me and I know what he has not been around to acknowledge.

"I'm not alone
Dear loneliness" I always had someone who cared, My mother.

"I forgot
That I remember this" I forgot why my mom hated him so much. I forgot that she was always there for me. I forgot that he would not change for his own blood...but I remember this.

"Oh stranger stranger
Stranger things have happened" I know" I would tell the complete stranger and anyone else who is awed at the thought of a "Father/Stranger" who would walk out on his family...Stranger things have Happened.
