Nobody Loves You
LYRICS
Watching the days slip by so fast
Knowing our fate has long been cast
Working our fingers to the bone
Cause nobody loves you when you're gone
Coughing up feeling just for you
To find something real to hold on to
But there is a hole inside my heart
Where all of my love comes pouring out.
You know you'll always be my man
But grab yourself sweetness where you can
Cause sooner or later we're going to die
Left to the dogs under the sky
I cracked a piece of broken glass
Cracked a piece of broken glass
Coughing up feeling just for you
To find something real to hold on to
But there is a hole inside my heart
Where waves of my love come tumbling out.
You say that all the good is gone
That I have forgotten who I am
Free as a bird
Wild as the wind
But somehow I cannot let you in
I'm sorry I'm sorry
I'm sorry I'm sorry
Please forgive me, please forgive me
Please forgive me, please forgive me
Please forgive me, please forgive me

Shirley has said this song is about people when they get older. I think it's also about her own situation with Garbage and her marriage during the time between Version 2.0 and Beautifulgarbage. It's about loss and the futility of wasted love.

This is my favorite line. Reminds me of sitting on the sidewalk with friends when I was a kid.
I think Nobody Loves You is 'bout Garbage fans. Fans are saying she has changed and Shirley thinks they don't love Garbage between albums & live tours.

This line is Shirley's fear of Garbage's failure. She knows it's inevitable that one day their critics will literally pull them to pieces.
