I Know - Fiona Apple
So be it, i’m your crowbar If that’s what i am so far Until you get out of this mess And i will pretend That i don’t know of your sins Until you are ready to confess But all the time, all the time I’ll know, i’ll know And you can use my skin To […]
How many times do i have to say To get away-get gone Flip your shit past another lasses Humble dwelling You got your game, made your shot, and you got away With a lot, but i’m not turned-on So put away that meat you’re selling Cuz i do know what’s good for me- And i’ve […]
I wouldn’t know what to do with another chance If you gave it to me I couldn’t take the embrace of a real romance It’d race right through me I’m much better off the way things are Much much better off, better by far, by far I wouldn’t know what to say to a gentle […]

Limp - Fiona Apple
You wanna make me sick; You wanna lick my wounds, Don’t you, baby? You want the badge of honour when you save my hide But you’re the one in the way Of the day of doom, baby If you need my shame to reclaim your pride And when i think of it, my fingers turn […]
Here’s another speech you wish i’d swallow Another cue for you to fold your ears Another train of thought too hard to follow Chugging along to the song that belongs to the shifting of gears Please forgive me for my distance The pain is evident in my existence Please forgive for my distance The shame […]
All my life is on me now, hail the pages turning And the future’s on the bound, hell don’t know my fury You’re all i need, you’re all i need, you’re all i need You’re all i need, you’re all i need, you’re all i need You’re all i need – and maybe some faith […]
