Elliott Smith – Abused Lyrics 16 years ago
The lines

Other people see some evil intention
But the closer you get
The more you get confused how
Why does everyone know
Been abused now
Didn't want it to show

have always felt more to me like everyone else's response is to call his abuser evil, but because Elliott knows him he finds it harder to see it as such a black and white issue. Maybe his abuser was abused, too, or something like that - it wouldn't excuse it, but it makes it harder to hate him.

Elliott Smith – Last Call Lyrics 16 years ago
the lines

You're a crisis
You're a icicle
You're a tongueless talker
You don't care what you say
You're a jaywalker and you just just walk away
And that's all you do

make me hate myself a little.

Elliott Smith – A Question Mark Lyrics 16 years ago
"You're giving back a little hatred now to the world
Because it treated you bad
Because you couldn't keep the great unknown from making you mad"

AND

"Said your final word, but honesty and love could've kept us together
One day you'll see it's worth it after all
If you ever want to say you're sorry you can give me a call"

are a perfect description of my relationship with my ex-best friend. I (and I think Elliott does too) feel so disgusted by her that I really just don't care anymore, but at the same time I'm still so angry that I want to hurt her.

love the halo line. also the line "she smoked and i made some progress" line is great because it shows that the affair wasnt a spontaneous, accidental thing.

I cannot believe no ones commented on this yet! This song is brilliant. Every line is so sharp and witty that I couldnt even pick one as my favorite for this comment.
