Lyrics: Kings of Leon - Use Somebody

Lyrics taken from the: Official Version

I've been roaming around
Always looking down at all I see
Painted faces, fill the places I cant reach

You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody

Someone like you, And all you know, And how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street

You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you

Off in the night, while you live it up, I'm off to sleep
Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make you notice
I hope it's gonna make you notice

Someone like me
Someone like me
Someone like me, somebody

Someone like you, somebody
Someone like you, somebody
Someone like you, somebody

I've been roaming around,
Always looking down at all I see

There is alot of irony in this song because it is about the lifestyle of a rollling stone & being on the road all the time and meeting countless people that are just fronts and fans- the painted faces reference. He is tired of the lovers that come and go with fame and just looks down at all these people- symbolic of being on satge. When he references to waging a war with poetry/music- it refers to him writing songs about her to get her attention- while she unknowingly takes the music for what its worth and its just another concert and party for her. He has always looked down on all the people involved in his life but this time it is him that wants to win the attention of someone else.
