    Lyrics
    i'm getting desperate
    desperate for a revolution
    some kind of spark
    some kind of connection
    in these dangerous days
    come a little bit closer
    i need to understand
    why we kill the things we love the most
    kill the things we love
    kill the things we love the most
    but they don't burn like we do
    they don't burn like we do
    even though our love is doomed
    even though we're all messed up
    we're still waiting for tomorrow
    we're still aching for tomorrow
    don't want to be dead to life
    don't want to be dulled to extinction
    don't want to be lost in dreams
    don't want to be sleepwalking
    maybe i should break the chain
    maybe i should break the connection
    such strange little birds
    devoured by our obsession
    can you love me for what i've become?
    love me for what i said i would not become
    cause they don't burn like i do
    they don't burn like i do
    even though your love is cruel
    even though our stars are crossed
    we're still waiting for tomorrow
    we're still aching for tomorrow
    even though our love is doomed
    even though we're all messed up
    you're the only thing worth fighting for
    you're the only thing worth dying for
    even though our love is doomed
    even though our love is doomed

    Tears flowing as I reminisce. It’s true as you age the same song will form new meaning and you discover that deeper meaning only as you age. Been a fan of Garbage since the beginning and they were there during my teens, 20s, 30s and today. So much thought, emotions, melody, lyrics to create this honest masterpiece. I so very much miss this music. The video is an absolutely perfect choice.

    Probably the perfect Garbage ballad - Dark atmosphere, charming melody, achingly sad lyrics, slow-burning pace, stunning and moving vocal work, all leading to a crescendo of sonic bliss and a maelstrom of melancholia.

      What is funny on this comment is I have seen enough of their latest interviews (set to promote this album) that when I read Butch I read it on Shirley's voice on my mind and from there on, all the rest of the message is on her voice.
      Fuck I LOVE her accent.

    This is a incredible song!!! Hearing Garbage play it in concert I can't explain it it just goes through your core! Garbage is a legendary band every time I see them it's completely different then the last time. Shirley and the boys may be getting older but they just get better!!! ❤

    I think this isn't just my favorite song on the album. It's become a favorite song of mine in life -- along with others, of course. Sometimes, if this song is on in the background and someone is over to hear it, it stops them in their tracks and they just listen. I had a friend tear up after she heard it, and a few other friends commented that it floored them. So yeah, songs like this don't come around often. It's so beautiful in so many ways.

  • @vlkoslak221

    I was at their show in Ljubljana, Slovenia this tuesday. Shirley said this song was the essence of their new album. And they performed it with such affection that it seemed as though the song was here for years. If this were the 90s this song woud've been a hit. In this day and age only Garbage fans will feel genuinely moved by this wonderful song.

    • @AustinTXSlasher
      @AustinTXSlasher Před 4 lety +3

      I tend to play this song for a lot of my friends who I know hadn't heard it before. What's really fascinating is the looks on people's faces when it's playing. They stop and actually listen. I've played this for friends who don't even like Garbage, but this song does something to people; it stops them in their tracks. You just can't go wrong when a song does that to people. I remember when I first heard it; I just knew I'd love it forever.

    • @claireguillon7596
      @claireguillon7596 Před 3 lety +3

      @@AustinTXSlasher this bass line around which the whole song revolves, kills it from the start. Add Shirley's voice, those perfectly doomed lyrics, the building of the rhythm adding more and more and more.. When this album was released this was the one song I immediately loved as a great Garbage track, period. Not "for nowadays, compared to mainstream bs.." just in itself a masterpiece.. I of course still feel the same way right now

  • @majorgeek
    @majorgeek Před 8 lety +136

    This song feels like Depeche Mode wrote it. That's not an insult since Garbage and Depeche Mode are two of my top three favorite bands of all time. I'd love to have Shirley and Dave Gahan do a duet together. It would be so dark and epic.

    "Even Though Our Love Is Doomed"
    [Verse 1]
    I'm getting desperate
    Desperate for a revolution
    Some kind of spark
    Some kind of connection
    In these dangerous days
    Come a little bit closer
    I need to understand
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Why we kill the things we love the most
    Kill the things we love
    Kill the things we love the most
    Why we kill the things we love the most
    Kill the things we love
    Kill the things we love the most
    But they don't burn like we do
    They don't burn like we do
    [Chorus]
    And even though our love is doomed
    And even though we're all messed up
    We're still waiting for tomorrow
    We're still aching for tomorrow
    And even though our love is cruel
    And even though our stars are crossed
    You're the only thing worth fighting for
    You're the only thing worth dying for
    [Verse 2]
    Don't wanna be dead to life
    Don't wanna be dulled to extinction
    Don't wanna be lost in dreams
    Don't wanna be caught sleepwalking
    Maybe I should break the chain
    Maybe I should break the connection
    Such strange little birds
    Devoured by our obsessions
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Can you love me for what I've become
    Love me for what I
    Said that I would not become
    Can you love me for what I've become
    Love me for what I
    Said that I would not become
    Cause they don't burn like I do
    They don't burn like I do
    [Chorus]
    And even though your love is cruel
    And even though our stars are crossed
    We're still waiting for tomorrow
    We're still aching for tomorrow
    And even though our love is doomed
    And even though we're all messed up
    You're the only thing worth fighting for
    You're the only thing worth dying for
    [Outro]
    And even though our love is doomed
    Even though our love is doomed
    Even though our love is doomed
    Even though our love is doomed
    Even though our love is doomed
    Even though our love is doomed
    Even though our love is doomed
    You're the only thing worth fighting for
    You're the only thing worth dying for

    I think you can hear garbage evolving, musically speaking, into a more deep and soul touching band. But when you hear them live is just out of this f***ing world. This song is a strong candidate to be on my top 5 Garbage songs along with "Medication", "The trick is to keep breathing", "#1 crush", "I'm only happy when it rains" and of course "Special" and "Queer" and "Stupid Girl" and "Push it" and "Vow" and ... I think that was more than 5.. this is so hard.
    I cannot wait to hear the complete new album. But from this song and "Empty" I can only say "WELL DONE". You are, if not, the greatest rock band ever. You have my complete admiration and support.
    "Strange little birds" will be without a doubt one of my favorite albums EVER.
