Mesh - You didn't want me

Mesh's "You didn't want me", ein sphärisch treibendes düster - melancholisches Lied hat für mich eine besonders intensive Bedeutung. Dies ist das Lied, bei dem ich mich von Beate (meiner langjährigen Freundin) trennte, dies ist das Lied, bei dem ich meine nächste Freundin Britta kennenlernte, und dies ist das Lied, das das traurige Ende meiner Beziehung mit Britta fast wortwörtlich wiedergibt. Ein für mich sehr ergreifendes Lied, dessen Kernaussage meine damalige Situation voll erfasst, ein Gefühl des Verlassenseins und des Unverständnisses und ein Gefühl vergeblich investierter Gefühle, Emotionen und Zeit. Für einen Menschen, der mich offensichtlich nicht wollte und/oder liebte...
Bis heute gehe ich bei diesem Lied tanzen - ganz allein und nur für mich. Ein stiller Protest gegen das Vergessen und den Schmerz in mir.

You didn't want me - Mesh 1997 - album version

This is why I'm alone tonight
this is why I've got no appetite
for fighting and biting, for lying and sniping
for talking of one thing than doing another
blaming each other

I never thought I'd sacrifice that much for you
I never meant to jeopardise my fun for you

Because you didn't want me
You never cried for me at all
You didn't loved me
You were too far above me
then you watched me take the fall.
Because you didn't want me...

Here is why I never contemplate
Here is why I should celebrate
No more hurting and using
the spitting and bruising
breaking a promise and saying I'm sorry
pretending to worry.

I never thought I'd have to take this much from you 
I wish I'd never used this precious time on you.

Because you didn't want me
You never cried for me at all
You didn't loved me
You were too far above me
then you watched me take the fall.
Because you didn't want me
You never cried for me at all
You didn't loved me
You were too far above me
then you watched me take the fall.

I never thought I'd have to take this much from you 
I wish I'd never used this precious time on you.

Because you didn't want me
You never cried for me at all
You didn't loved me
You were too far above me
then you watched me take the fall.

Because you didn't want me
You never cried for me at all
You didn't loved me
You were too far above me
then you watched me take the fall.

Because you didn't want me
You never cried for me at all
You didn't loved me
You were too far above me
then you watched me take the fall.
