GARBAGE

- Special Lyrics

I-I-I-I'm living without you
I-I-I-I know all about you
I have run you down into the ground
Spread disease about you over town

I-I-I-I used to adore you
I-I-I-I couldn't control you
There was nothing that I wouldn't do
To keep myself around and close to you

Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
But I've run out of patience
I couldn't care less

I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I

Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know

I-I-I-I used to amuse you
I-I-I-I knew that I'd lose you
Now you're here and begging for a chance
But there's no way in hell I'd take you back

Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
But I've run out of patience
I've run out of comments
I'm tired of the violence
I couldn't care less

I'm looking for a new
I'm looking for a new
I'm looking for a new
I'm looking for a new

We were the talk of the town
We were the talk of the town
We were the talk of the town
We were the talk of the town

I thought you were special
I thought you were special
I thought you were special
I thought you were special...

What is the meaning behind Special lyrics?


When we interpret the meaning being expressed, the track 'Special' performed by Garbage captures the moment of a singer who once worshipped the person now he/she/they are seeing through a negative filter. That person gradually reveals his/her/their ugly side until they cease to exist for the narrator at all. The repeated phrase 'I'm looking for a new' embodies the whole ordeal of disillusionment and the further step of accepting it as a past and taking no more poison from it - which is already symbolically done: 'Special', in its totality, highlights such human feelings as heartbreak, angst, anger, empowerment, and despair. Nonetheless, the song points to death and loss as the inevitable steps you have to take on your journey; the same goes for disillusionment and moving on. The lyrics have the topics of love quarrels and mental suffering, which are not recommended for very young kids without supervision. There are some metaphorical violence hints but no obscene words or harsh graphics.
