So Sad, So Lonely Lyrics
On a late night drive
In my winter coat
With my blood-shot eyes
My faith ain't been
No friend to me
And the way I sin
Is hanging off of me
You can't take me anywhere
Pretty soon we're almost there
Baby, one more night
It's been a long, long drive
And I'm way, way tired
I don't need no
Back-up plan
Nobody don't want me
I'm so sad so lonely
But I'm always landing on my feet
With a sad, sad smile
And your white-bread friends
In the circus life
All the one-way rides
The sweet beginnings
Passing on the left-hand side
With a sideways smile
One step from stalling
Bad trips can make great stories
Dance all night
With your ass on fire
And your hands up high
And feel me one more time
Nobody don't want me
I'm so sad so lonely
But I'm always landing on my feet
And I don't need no one else
And when a love moves on
'Cause it gets cold
Well, then another moves in
And it can fill the hole
Hopeful, lying on the bedroom floor
No sense trying
When the whole thing drops
You lose your nerve
I hope you get what you deserve
Nobody don't want me
I'm so sad, so lonely
But I'm always landing on my feet
:O I can't believe nobody has commented on this song !! It's such a great one of theirs .. I think for me this song is about somebody who can't seem to find a relationship that works and is unable to settle down. He gives off the impression of being strong and happy when really he is 'sad' and 'lonely' inside.
I agree, I never really realized that until you said it, though. "All the one-way rides" one night stands ... there's a touch of indignation in this, though. Kind of, don't feel sorry for ME! I'm ALWAYS landing on my feet, I can handle it.
this is clearly the best song on the More Than You Think You Are Album. When my ex-boyfriend pissed me off, I always listened to this. I love it.
Oh my god, I ADORE this song. It's my favourite matchbox twenty song full stop i think. I'm not too sure what it all means, but i don't think it matters because you can just hear the anger and upset, and it's just emotional. I love the last three lines....
I love it the song sounds fairly upbeat with a twinge of anger but the lyrics suggest loneliness and depression. itsthe curse of the extrovert you must always appear happy even if you are lonely if nt even for your own psychological defence
Why are they quoting "Just a Gigolo?"
OMG Can anyone say jaded & masked?! I loved this song from the first time I heard it. It spoke to the repetitive fuck up in me. "And your white bread friends In the circus life" is so sarcastic and possibly a bit envious. whitebread friends. sweet beginners. normal non fuck ups. the kind you can take anywhere. the kind who aren't lying on the floor freaking out and pretending they aren't. It's almost resentment... like fuck you goody two shoes types, i don't need ya! I'm off having bad trips, shaking my ass and being decadent ("the way i sin is hanging off of me"!? c'mon!! yeah, i love MB20 & this song rocks.
I don't want nobody, nobody don't want me , and im so sad so lonely , and im always landing on my feet....
lol, that sums up part of my life...
You guys are crazy. This song is about one thing and one thing only; CATS.
I know I know, it sounds crazy, but my better half (not even the biggest MB20 fan) listened to it once and knew it. It's in the words, it's in the beat, it's in the vibe. Not to mention Rob Thomas is an avid animal lover who founded/runs a non-profit dedicated in part to animals.
Yeah it's about cats. He fooled you.
