Everybody Cares, Everybody Understands Lyrics

Cover art for Everybody Cares, Everybody Understands lyrics by Elliott Smith

first off, there is another version of this song the original(similiar but different lyrics), which shows u how he felt about this song even more then the lyrics in this version do, so i would suggest listening to that version which is on youtube first. 2nd this is definitely a song about how a bunch of his friends tried to have an intervention for elliott, and he turned them all away. and one of the biggest points i think he was trying to make in this song is, u dont know me, u dont know how i feel, who knows, if i dont have my meds/drugs i might feel so shitty i might want to kill myself. RIP elliott u will be forever LOVED!! wow listening to the alternate version right now, and yes please listen it explains everything alot clearer!!!
