Somebody Somebody

It’s always been intriguing to me the random haphazard way some human relationships start. And then the way some of them unfold. Enemies become friends...friends become enemies...I guess it’s just the nature of the beast...sometimes quirky
Somebody out there hates me
But they don’t know it yet
At first they’ll love yeah love what I got
But then in time they’ll want to hit me in the gut
Try to forget the day we ever met
And wonder why and fill with regret
But we haven’t met yet... no no not yet
Somebody out there loves me
But they don’t know it yet
Cuz first they’re gonna think me a fool
But in time they’re gonna see I’m a jewel
Yeah and need gonna need the love that I got
But we haven’t met yet no no not yet
Is it a curse in my thinking
Or a blessing for my taking
Is it right or is it really all wrong
I know somebody somebody’s comin along
But we haven’t met yet no no not yet
Break
The further I run and the longer I crawl
The more I realize I just can’t please em all
The more I look the more lost souls I see
I know somebody needs somebody like me
But we haven’t met yet no no not yet
Somebody’s got a finger on a trigger
Somebody needs to make somebody pay
And so without a warning
A rage is loose and a life gets taken
In the tension the tight tight tension
A crazy mind kills without question
But they haven’t met yet…… no no not yet
Hey somebody yeah somebody
Knows how to hang up on sad
And turn away and just let it be
That somebody somebody is me
Walk away with me and see
Before it’s time for regret
na na na na na na na na na na na no...no not yet

It's a fun song, although in some ways it's sad because it describes an inexplicable reality, haha, but that's how it is.
The guitar sounds good, and I like the reverb in the vocals. The "...no no no yet" is very catchy.

Love that opening:
Somebody out there hates me
But they don’t know it yet
Got exactly that quirky feeling that you were talking about. Same with the final line of that verse:
But we haven’t met yet... no no not yet
It gets you thinking about how these things unfold, which is exactly what you are after!
Makes a great tag line for each verse, and could even be an alternate title.
Somebody’s got a finger on a trigger
Ooh I did not see that coming! Much darker verse. Gives it a nice edge, and makes you re-evaluate the song overall.
It may not be practical for you, but I think this one would really benefit from a strong funky bassline.
Really enjoyed that!

I left you a comment on Soundcloud. Loved the song. The guitar work is incredible to my (admittedly amateur) ear. I know what I like, and I loved the instrumental. The quirky vocal was accentuated with a slightly quirky fit with the instrumental which I felt really grabbed and held interest.

Hey thanks ya'll for tuning in.
@MoraAmaroLaLoba muchos gracias amiga. Si, solo un poco de reverberación lo hace agradable. (did I get that right?) 😉
@ElvisNash got another one I'm working on kind of inspired by you called..."Guy And A Guitar"
@RainyDayMan thanks for the kind words Owen. Hmm, a bass, I've been working with some other musicians, let me see if I can put that together, yeah I think you're right.
@Hardtwistmusic Aww heck thanks for those kind words my friend. Glad you enjoyed it!
