Matchbox 20 - Bent 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

    This song deserves millions of likes it describes what people are going through in life right now like me this song really helps me through what I'm going through I really appreciate this song ❤️❤️ I love this song ❤️💙💙💞

  21. F.... ....

    Wow just looked up this song bc years after it came out I look back on this song in a different way. I wanted to cover this with my band but when I imagined a music video for it (yes I'm a big-thinker lol) I was reminded of tough stuff I went thru during my adult life; I had a flashback of being hospitalized and feeling confused and unsure what was happening which I wanted portrayed one day in video form. But I cudnt help but cry thinking about that. Seeing this again has gotten me now hoping I cud do it (releasing the cover on soundcloud when I get the chance)!

    Cuz maybe there's a reason for this song or story maybe this can help ppl in crisis like I was long ago.

  22. V.... G....

    Cool song 👍

  23. G.... S....

    A car hit us today Too early for Christmas

  24. J.... B....

    60s 70s 80s 90s great music 2000 on auto tune and american idol bullshit. they did that shit better in the 70s. it was called the gong show

  25. p.... ....

    The cycle of abuse continues when the victim becomes the abuser ... recognizing this vulnerability will help you stop the cycle of abuse...that's what I got from the video...pretty profound lyrics, thanks Rob Thomas ❤

  26. A.... S....

  28. M.... B....

    one of the best intro to a song

  29. C.... W....

    I started out clean But now i'm Jaded... god thats so true!!! but I Guess thats life Ain't That A Bitch...

  30. s.... c....

    In the 1990s, we still respect the old and learned how to deal with new.

  31. A.... T....

    This is Matchbox Twenty's best track by far. The iconic guitar at the beginning and end gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it.

  32. A.... G....

    I feel like Humpty Dumpty and I have had a Great Fall and now I am in pieces and I'm so scared that I will never be put back together!

  33. B.... M....

    LINCOLN CONTINENTAL TOWN CAR ABUSE!!
    😲😢
    To all you youngsters out there, you have no idea what you're missing to have ever driven one of these bitchen beasts! Not only were they beautiful but they drove beautiful, like riding on a cloud. Like driving your living room around! 6800 pounds of car! Mine had the 460 cubic inch V8 engine and was a 77. Same car, same color. But the car in the video I believe is a 78. They made them that big one more year, 1979, before all cars had to get shrunk down, government-mandated. I just miss our big beautiful old American cars so much.

  34. T.... H....

    Miss that old times

  35. R.... R....

    If you don't have them already.. you need to purchase the albums:
    Yourself or Someone Like You
    and
    Mad Season

  36. D.... C....

    Still cool to dance to

  49. A.... ....

    I'm sorry to be so average, but Rob Thomas is HOT.

  50. A.... F....

    Man seems like 1999 was yesterday...

  51. G.... A....

    he is so handsome...

  52. J.... H....

    Remember listening and watching the videos on tv 📺 back day

  53. V.... k....

    Rob Thomas is so cute...

  54. b.... ....

    I never really liked Rob Thomas or Matchbox 20 much but I liked this song and Unwell. The song is unusual for a US number one as it didn't really sound like anything else at the time. For me the hook is the haunting guitar part around 2:40

  55. A.... d....

    Essa música me lembra a adolescência, tempos do colégio.Saudade me define!!

  56. A.... T....

    Thars your latest Spiderman.

  57. A.... T....

  58. W.... B....

    I miss this era of rock music I was just a young lad in my twenties when the song came out and I didn't appreciate the band then because I was a Metalhead but I always liked this particular song but now in 2019 I'm listening to Matchbox 20! Sometimes you just don't know good music when it's in front of you until it's too late and it's gone and everything is hip hop and Nicki Minaj lol

  59. J.... L....

    Love this song from way back, but i never got to feel the lyrics till now 😪

  60. J.... ....

    The different scenes don't make much sense in regard to the lyrics. In the video it seems like Rob's having a really, *really*, bad day.

  61. L.... C....

    One of my favorite bands ever.

  62. M.... R....

    I love this band! 😁

  63. V.... Y....

    2019 fans!

  64. K.... ....

    Love how the beat changes at 2:18

  65. S.... C....

    Still like this song... And band. ♥ Woke up with this jam in my head, and I'm glad ☺

  66. N.... A....

    2019 and still loves this so much <3

  67. f.... r....

    repeat your death forever

  68. 9.... ....

    This is from the album mad season not exile on mainstream

    9.... ....

  69. D.... ....

    This song went to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2000

  70. E.... r....

    what car is that?

  71. T.... H....

    ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💛💛💛💛

  72. M.... H....

    This video is pretty silly, I just came here to listen to the song.

  73. t.... m....

    2:13 gives me a feeling i can’t explain

  74. C.... ....

    2019 anyone?

  75. L.... B....

    Anyone else just listening to songs and thinking about life just good songs you grow up and the lyrics mean so much I love rob thamas music all of his songs they are amazing rob Thomas is truly is a aretist I can relate to 💙💜💙💜❤️💙💜💙💜I wish more people my age would understand what the words mean

  76. C.... C....

    Britney spears in this video will be exciting

  77. M.... ....

    I remember the old Youtube system where they have many music video from different people. I usually pick the high quality one. I'm sure back then they have many views but they got separated and reupload.

  78. a.... ....

    Song reminds me of 7th and 8th grade. Nostalgic depression

  79. C.... s....

    "Rob help me I'm Bent"
