Matchbox 20 - Hand Me Down Lyrics






Someday they'll find your small town world on a big town avenue
Gonna make you like the way they talk when they're talking to you
Gonna make you break out of the shell cause they tell you to
Gonna make you like the way they lie better than the truth
They'll tell you everything you wanted someone else to say
They're gonna break your heart, yeah

[Chorus]

From what I've seen
You're just a one more hand me down
Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now

Somebody ought to take you in
Try to make you love again
Try to make you like the way they feel
When they're under your skin
Never once did think they'd lie when they're holding you
You wonder why they haven't called
When they said they'd call you
You start to wonder if you're ever gonna make it by
You'll start to think you were born blind

[Chorus]

From what I've seen
You're just a one more hand me down
Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now

I'm here for the hard times
The straight to your heart times
Whenever it ain't easy
You can stand up against me
And maybe rely on me
And cry on me, yeah
Oh no, no, no

Some day they'll open up your world
Shake it down on a drawing board
Do their best to change you
They still can't erase you

[Chorus]

From what I've seen
You're just a one more hand me down
Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now

Lay them down on me
Oh yeah
You're just one more hand me down
And all those nots don't give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down...on me

    My wife dedicated this song to me 7 years ago....
    At first, I was offended....
    But as I realized that she truly knew me better than anyone, and I actually got perspective on the song, it’s perfect.
    Plan to have our “first dance” to it at our 5 yr vow renewal since we didn’t really have a wedding.....
    Love her

    Good luck, you only speak without action, who are you? Hard times are memories that are thought to be hard when relayed by others perception of said memory, example being the boy raised by wolf's there is other situations that can result in same way. But not.lol.

  84. S.... H....

    Through her eyes...
    Rely on me..
    Cry on me..
    Still can't erase ya...
    No clue what I need..
    But will once I decide
    Where to get it...
    No hand me down ..
    No side chick..
    My lane..
    My choice..
    You have no say..
    Evermore... Nevermore..

    Like actually showing up for a date in this electronic era...
    Been touched my hard drive lately?
    Leaves a lot to be desired..
    Who wants to postulate an empty entity with a yield in the negatives? Not this girl. Give me that old fashioned loving. Hell yes. Postulate your own entity mr. Numb. In fact postulate this! Then shut the front door! 😌😏😦💔❤💋

  85. S.... H....

    Very night...💔

  86. J.... T....

    But they have erased me:( i am this song. Erased from their world, forced to go on without them, wishing I could just erase my life and start over...

  88. K.... C....

    I play this for my boyfriend it reminds me of him I love him so much

  91. R.... G....

    Its Remind me walking alone in down town New York city

  92. D.... C....

    So Lay All Your Troubles Down on Me

  93. B.... C....

    Who else has to listen to this song on repeat and make themselves turn it off? I love hand me downs! Some of the best things I have ever come across was passed down and either lightly used or still had the tags on it because somebody thought they loved it and left it in the back of the closet for too long!

  94. H.... H....

    Start to wonder...

  95. b.... c....

    Done...
