We made your made your overtures
|
When you were show an orotund mutt
|
And I was still a dew on petals
|
Rather than a moribund slut
|
My love wrecked you
|
You packed to twirl your skirt at the palace
|
It hurt more than it ought to hurt
|
I went to work to cultivate a callus
|
|
[Hook]
|
And now I'm hard, too hard to know
|
I don't cry when I'm sad anymore, no no
|
Tears calcify in my [?]
|
Fears go inside [?]
|
|
How can I ask anyone to love me
|
When all I do is beg to be left alone?
|
|
Oh, when I try to love
|
I can save the same man in the same bed in the same city
|
But not in the same room, it's a pity, but
|
Oh, it never bothered me before
|
Not 'til this guy, what a guy, oh God what a good guy
|
And I can't even enjoy him
|
|
[Hook]
|
|
How can I ask anyone to love me
|
When all I do is beg to be left
|
When all I do is beg to be left
|
When all I do is beg to be left alone
|
Alone, alone
|
|
My ills are articulate
|
My woes are granular
|
The ants weigh more than the elephants
|
Nothing, nothing is manageable
|
So couldn't we validictories?
|
I could see you enjoy that
|
Shut it and forget my number
|
|
[Hook]
|
|
How can I ask anyone to love me
|
When all I do is beg to be left
|
When all I do is beg to be left
|
When all I do is beg to be left alone
|
