whether it falls in the category or not: "Found out about you" written by Doug Hopkins of the Gin Blossoms:
All last summer in case you dont recall
I was yours and you were mine forget it all
Is there a line that I could write
Sad enough to make you cry
All the lines you wrote to me were lies
The months roll past the love that you struck dead
Did you love me only in my head?
Things you said and did to me
Seemed to come so easily
The love I thought I'd won you give for free
Whispers at the bus stop
I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
Rumors follow everywhere you go
Like when you left and I was last to know
You're famous now and there's no doubt
In all the places you hang out
They know your name and know what you're about
Street lights blink on through the car window
I get the time too often on am radio
You know its all I think about
I write your name, drive past your house
Your boyfriend's over I watch your light go out
Whispers at the bus stop
I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
To me this is one of the saddest songs, covered up with pop rock hooks. Real painful. Musta been, Doug Hopkins took his own life soon after recording this song. He died broke and never knew the success this and Hey Jealousy would have.
