Not Coming Home Lyrics

When you refuse me
You confuse me
What makes you think I’ll let you in again
Think again my friend
Go on misuse me and abuse me
I’ll come out stronger in the end

And does it make you sad
To find yourself alone
And does it make you mad
To find that I have grown
I’ll bet it hurts so bad
To see the strength that I have shown

When you answer the door pick up the phone
You wont find me cause I’m not coming home

You don’t know how much this hurts me
To say these things that I don’t want to say
But have to say them anyway
I would do anything to end your suffering
But you would rather walk away

i love the guitar and the rhythm in this song...i dont know what you guys are talking about with the whole "it sounds like the backstreet boys" thing, i dont think those two bands could even be compared... anyway. yeah, the lyrics aren't too hard to figure out. the girl that the guy is with thinks that she can just toss him around and treat him like dirt, and that he'll just keep on coming back. eventually the guy is fed up with that, and decides to leave her. but now that he's gone, the girl wants him even more (you want want you can't have, its true..)

When I first heard this song I didn't like it, it sounds like the backstreet boys singing, it really sounds like a boyband in this song. But then after only focusing only on the lyrics I ended up liking this song. It's about him telling this girl this is the end, there's no way they are going back and that's because she kept hurting him until he got tired of it. It's a really good song if you listen to the lyrics...

One of the best songs ever, man. M5 kicks ass. Best band I've seen in a LONG time. Probably the best band I've ever seen in my lifetime.

Buuut...I'd say these lyrics are pretty much self explanitory. :p She's his girlfriend who is playing games with him. Then he decides he's done playing games, is moving on, and she want's him now. He doesn't like that he's hurting her, but he has to move on anyway because he doesn't want to play her twisted games anymore. That's how I see it anyway. :p
