Can you feel me now
Flint Eastwood Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I collapse, will you forget?
When I′m dead and gone, will you regret?
All of the constant, mocking bitter slander
I imposed when you were so upset
When you grabbed your keys, said you were gone
Couldn't help myself, I passed the gun
Inform my friends and family I lived well
It′s just my choices
They were wrong
They were wrong,
They were wrong,
They were wrong,
They were wrong, wrong, wrong

Can you save me?
From this nothing I've become
It's just something that I′ve done
Never meant to cause you worry
Don′t you blame me
For this nothing I've become
It′s just something that I've done
Never meant to show you my mistakes

When I collapse, break bones, will you forget
All the months we′ve spent on loneliness
Long nights, short days, brief conversations
Led to nothing more than arguments
I would fix this if I could
I'd change this, you know I would
It′s been a long time comin', a long time fakin'
It′s hard to say that you′re misunderstood.

Can you save me?
From this nothing I've become
It′s just something that I've done
Never meant to cause you worry
Don′t you blame me
For this nothing I've become
It′s just something that I've done
Never meant to show you my mistakes

I don't know, I don′t know
I don′t know where I am headed
All I can tell is that you're gone!
All I know,
All I know I′ve become a disappointment
Sorry if I'm always wrong!

All your perspectives stand
I′m not the same creature that I was back then
With a slight touch and an honest glance
I'm never coming back
Never going back there again

Can you save me?
Can you save me?

Can you save me?
From this nothing I′ve become
It's just something that I've done
Never meant to cause you worry
Don′t you blame me
For this nothing I′ve become




It's just something that I′ve done
Never meant to show you my mistakes

I'm never coming back
I'm not returning to the way things were before


Never going back there again
I am committed to moving forward and improving
