Matt Nathanson - Bulletproof Weeks Lyrics
Somewhere in between
The beginning and the end
September took the tourists
And settled in for good
Brooklyn girls in scarves
Summer left and no one said a word
We'd open your window
Stay in your bed
All day 'til the street lights came on
So, what happened to bulletproof weeks in your arms?
What happened to feeling cheap radio songs?
What happened to thinking that the world was flat?
So up on 59th street
Right before the rains
Lovers catching taxis going downtown
I'm talking to what's left of you
I'm watching what I say
Counting all the freckles on your perfect face
You open your window
And sit on your bed
Just waiting for right words to come
So, what happened to bulletproof weeks in your arms?
What happened to feeling cheap radio songs?
What happened to thinking that the world was flat?
What happened—
Yeah, what happened to that?
Was I wrong? [2x]
So, what happened to bulletproof weeks in your arms?
What happened to feeling cheap radio songs?
What happened to thinking that the world was flat?
What happened—
Yeah, what happened to that?

Love this song makes me cry every time
What happened to bulletproof weeks in your arms?
+Grace Ryan +Johnny Zehner
WARNING:slightly long read
If we take the song as, one of him singing about an ex-lover. We can think of that main chorus as a semi-metaphor for the time the had together. That line "What happened to bulletproof weeks in your arms." could be broken down to saying, how, when they were holding eachother in their arms, nothing in the world matters. As if time was standing still, and as if the problems of the world and life are bullets and their love protected them from it. If only for a fleeting second. Coupled with the next two lines "what happened to feeling cheap radio songs. What happen to thinking the world was flat " He's asking himself and to an extant, his ex. What happened to those feelings we shared. Sitting curled up in eachothers arms, listening to music, where nothing in the world could hurt us, where we were the only ones that mattered. Than Finally saying (In the second chorus)"what happened,.....Yea, what happened to that" "Was I wrong....,Was I wrong" Now kinda feeling sad. and questioning if the feelings were only felt by him.
Sincerely
~A Romantic
+MagicalNoir My theory, similar to yours, is that he felt as you have described but has since lost the person whom gave him such feelings. It is both a beautiful and sad idea.
-Another romantic
+MagicalNoir "What happened to feeling cheap radio songs? What happened to thinking that the world was flat?" could also be symbolic of simpler times, times when songs played on the radio held deep emotional meaning and "when the world was flat" being when everything seemed to be so simple and laid out.
I love how many people were brought here by Pandora. :) Thank you, Of Monsters And Men station!
Bastille Radio!
+Cora Moss Marian and the Diamonds Radio :o
+Cora Moss mm Damien Rice
augustana radio
Jamestown Story radio

yes pandora
This is one of the saddest songs I know... it gets to me every time I hear it (thank god for waterproof mascara).
I doubt you will ever read this bit ever since graduation and before there wasn't a moment that when I thought about you a smile crept upon my face while it turned a little red every time you smiles I wishes I could just take a picture and I will be the first to admit I messed things up and they will probably never be the same
Caden Unholz is this about the actual guy who sings this or is this a guy/girl who you just hope will scroll onto your comments
