    Growing up poor and born in a remote village with no TV and all I had was a broken radio that I got it for free, I spent much of time after school listening to western songs which was considered evil in my world. I remember hearing songs from matchbox 20 in the mid 90s I was just entering my teenage years, I had hope, I felt like there's more to life than poverty, pain and hunger, there's a big world out there and I must go. Today I get to sit here in my lofty life and listen to these songs again and it brings tears.

    Lyrics
    If I fall along the way
    Pick me up and dust me off
    And if I get too tired to make it
    Be my breath so I can walk
    If I need some other love, then
    Give me more than I can stand
    And when my smile gets old and faded
    Wait around I'll smile again
    Shouldn't be so complicated
    Just hold me and then
    Oh, just hold me again
    Can you help me I'm bent
    I'm so scared that I'll never
    Get put back together
    Keep breaking me in
    And this is how we will end
    With you and me bent
    If I couldn't sleep, could you sleep?
    Could you paint me better off?
    Could you sympathize with my needs?
    I know you think I need a lot
    I started out clean but I'm jaded
    Just phoning it in
    Oh, just breaking the skin
    Can you help me I'm bent
    I'm so scared that I'll never
    Get put back together
    Keep breaking me in
    And this is how we will end
    With you and me bent
    Start bending me, it's never enough
    As I feel all your pieces
    Start bending me, keep bending me
    Oh, until I'm completely broken in
    Shouldn't be so complicated
    Just touch me and then
    Oh, just touch me again
    Can you help me I'm bent
    I'm so scared that I'll never
    Get put back together
    Keep breaking me in
    And this is how we will end
    With you and me will let them
    Without understanding
    Here I go there again
    Can you help me I'm bent
    I'm so scared that I'll never
    Get put back together
    Yeah, you're breaking me in
    And this is how we will end
    With you and me bent

      Pretty good song, but I feel the non-chorus vocals are a bit subpar compared to songs like 3AM and Push. I personally would say Push is the best track by them, but this song is not bad of a choice.

    This may seem strange, given the lyrics and meaning of this song, but when I listen to this, I am instantly transported back to the summer of 2000. The nostalgia of that summer -Swimming at the local pool, slumber parties with my friends, going to camp, and watching cartoons on the TV - hit me like a ton of bricks. This song was played all the time on the radio and as far as my 10 year-old self was concerned, it was a carefree summer anthem. It all seems like a dream now.

      Just about that EXACT memory stream with a few tweaks and several additions, was myself summer of 1993 with Aerosmith's classic compilation album Big Ones. I was 14, gorgeous, chilling with my sister every day at my grandma's pool next door to us. Minimum of 6 hours by the pool daily in the blazing, ludicrous South Carolina sun (much akin to a mid day Sahara fever dream yet with a working ozone layer, bless it) wearing not nearly enough SPFs naturally, each of us deep in our personal journey/ relentless bloodthirsty quest to win the annual Tanning Contest 🤦 ( I apologize Dr. Bryan, my dermatologist, for my lack of any scruples regarding sun protection, skin care and SPF maximum of 8.....we were on an undescribably competitive, bloody, fight to the death quest for the ultimate and best tan, future skin to which I now humbly apologize be damned!!). Life was absolutely perfect....... I've experienced that level of happiness only 3 times in my life, ranging in various amounts of time from 4 months to 3 years......just bliss every single day. It was as if time were standing still, a wrinkle in time on which we rode a perfect wave every day filled with genuine joy and indescribable happiness that now seems several lifetimes ago. Would I go back to age 13 and live these 44 years all over again, with their impervious joys and absolute bliss..... tempered and now intertwined with indescribable clinical depression, the sufferings of loving too hard, unspeakable tragedies and periods of incessant and unrelenting loneliness? You bet your sweet a** I would. For only the highest highs can be felt knowing and comprehending the lowest of lows. Perhaps eternal life will be the summer of 1993 on endless repeat..... that's my idea of perfect bliss throughout eternity. How beautiful. To God be the Glory of this life and of course, the summer of '93.

    This videoclip is basically depression and paranoia wrapped in a neat package; you see the faces of your friends on your enemies, you think the world's problems are uniquely yours, and when someone offers you help in the darkness, you turn them away because you can't remember how to react.

    This song couod be about a break up but it strikes me more about depression and anxiety. The part where he is trying to walk but the wind is only pushing him back is how it can feel. Why is it only me having this hard time to do anything. The part in the ally where he breaks off from everyone (you do that in a sense) you try to withdraw but another problem will come chase you doing that too. I love this song, Rob Thomas has got me through some hard times for sure.

    This is "our song". I remember this song playing on the radio when we were sitting in the boat we were test driving at Lake Mead. It was a 1988 Four Winns Horizon 180 with a modified V hull. We were young and dating at the time and when it came on we both stared into one another's eyes and a big grin came over each of us. That boat gave us many memories over the years. I also remember this song playing in my Jeep Wrangler, with half doors, eating ice cream from Sonic. We were still dating. Still young. She was looking cute and hot in her yellow sundress!! I was a dork with a tan and a flat top trying to look cool and impress her with my pilot like sunglasses. lol. That ice cream would somehow end up on her neck & our lips would interlock for the next 25 years! I no longer have that boat or that Jeep but I still have her and three living kids. ☺

    I used to listen to this song when I was only 14 years old back in the school days in mtv. Even when I was 18, I listened to this song in my friend's computer with pain and sadness in my mind that it embedded in heart. Sadly no one understood me not even my parents or friends or relatives. Now I am 33 years old and still listening to it. This song always felt like it was made for me and my struggle throughout the life like an endless loop and the obstacles after obstacles coming after me but I still kept walking and walking.

    I had just turned 18 years old when this song came out. I can still remember sitting in my bedroom with a blank cassette tape waiting for it to be played on the radio so I could record it. I did finally manage to get it and then proceeded to absolutely wear that tape out over the next couple of weeks until the full album went on sale.
    I swear kids these days don't realize just how difficult life used to be for us elderly folks. I had to walk six miles in the snow uphill both ways in order to buy that blank tape using money I had earned peeling potatoes with shards from a broken beer bottle. Now they just use "The Napster" to get whatever they want whenever they want it. Fucking brats.

      I won't part with my story, especially over UA-cam. However, even if life were to be experienced more first-hand in the earlier years... there's still certain hardship and unforseen events to tackle even today. Some people just hasn't got the good cards delt to them... To live with chronic depression, thought me a few things... I'll bring up one: having to push through, regardless of how difficult the trial - is enough in itself. "A scraped knee, hurts and for the crying child it is no irrelevance" if we compare hardship between one another, we'll get nowhere further than a frugal quarrel. That said, I'm more than aware that this isn't /wasn't the case. Just my two cents ~ Tom of 1993

    If I fall along the way

    Be my breath so I can walk
    If I need some other love
    Give me more than I can stand
    And when my smile gets old and faded
    Wait around I'll smile again
    Shouldn't be so complicated
    Just hold me and then
    Just hold me again
    Can you help me I'm bent
    I'm so scared that I'll never
    Get put back together
    You're breaking me in
    And this is how we will end
    With you and me bent
    If I couldn't sleep could you sleep
    Could you paint me better off
    Could you sympathize with my needs
    I know you think I need a lot
    I started out clean but I'm jaded
    Just phoning it in
    Just breaking the skin
    Can you help me I'm bent

    Get put back together
    You're breaking me in
    And this is how we will end
    With you and me bent
    Start bending me
    It's never enough
    I feel all your pieces
    Start bending me
    Keep bending me until I'm completely broken in

    Just touch me again
    Can you help me I'm bent
    I'm so scared that I'll never
    Get put back together
    You're breaking me in
    And this is how we will end
    With you and me landing
    Without understanding
    Can I go there again, can you help me, I'm bent
    I'm so scared that I'll never
    Get put back together
    You're breaking me in
    And this is how we will end
    With you and me bent
