You Don't Belong Lyrics
With time to kill and an empty tomb, I
always find a way to pass the time with you
Dark and smokey room
I can hardly stand the fumes
Telling me that you mean no harm, you
stand me up like a crutch, another arm
But only when I'm gone
Have I been away too long?
(chorus)
You don't belong to me/ I think you lied to me
And with my back against this wall, its hard to be strong
You'd tell me anything/ Look what you've done to me
And still I tell myself that tomorrow you'll be long gone
Any given time or place, I
never will forget the disgrace on
your face so full of love
Will it ever be enough?
Ten feet tall and bullet proof, I
never thought that I had a thing to lose
Well it looks like after all
I'm gonna have to choose
You don't belong to me/ I think you lied to me
And with my back against this wall, its hard to be strong
You'd tell me anything/ Look what you've done to me
And still I tell myself that tomorrow you'll be long gone
You help pass the time but I'm doing fine on my own
So there's no good reason why to live such a lie
Tell me have I been gone away too long?
You don't belong to me/ I think you lied to me
And with my back against this wall, its hard to be strong
You'd tell me anything/ Look what you've done to me
And still I tell myself that tomorrow you'll be long gone
Long gone
always find a way to pass the time with you
Dark and smokey room
I can hardly stand the fumes
Telling me that you mean no harm, you
stand me up like a crutch, another arm
But only when I'm gone
Have I been away too long?
You don't belong to me/ I think you lied to me
And with my back against this wall, its hard to be strong
You'd tell me anything/ Look what you've done to me
And still I tell myself that tomorrow you'll be long gone
never will forget the disgrace on
your face so full of love
Will it ever be enough?
Ten feet tall and bullet proof, I
never thought that I had a thing to lose
Well it looks like after all
I'm gonna have to choose
And with my back against this wall, its hard to be strong
You'd tell me anything/ Look what you've done to me
And still I tell myself that tomorrow you'll be long gone
So there's no good reason why to live such a lie
Tell me have I been gone away too long?
And with my back against this wall, its hard to be strong
You'd tell me anything/ Look what you've done to me
And still I tell myself that tomorrow you'll be long gone

This song is about addictiion to someone or something.And thinking that you need them to get by "Stand me up like a crutch, another arm." Then realizing that it or they are just putting your back against the wall,and that you make it on your own.

My favorite song by Daughtry so far, hope it makes the next alblum
The great thing about certain songs is that they can mean something completely different depending on the situation you are in.
To me, because of a situation I am currently in, it seems to be about someone who has fallen in love with someone and then come to find out that the other person is really married.
I believed that he was in a bad marriage and that he was trying to get out but he used me like a crutch, lied to me, and would tell me anything to get me to stay and continue to wait for him. I heard all the lies and all the apologies. But in the end I had to choose, because I am stronger than that and deserve so much better.
i loooove this song. the chorus is:
ou don't belong to me/ I think you lied to me And with my back against this wall, its hard to be strong You'd tell me anything/ Look what you've done to me And still I tell myself that tomorrow you'll belong, go on. gone.
The very beginning of the song kinda reminds me of Breathe Into Me from Red. Very good song to start off the album (I don't like slow starts).
