Elliott Smith - I Figured You Out lyrics

seen you watching

her every time she crosses the floor

so just go and talk to

someone you really adore

i'm getting pretty used to being

the one you always ignore

when somebody wants you

i've seen it before

you're every kind of color

there ain't nothing that you won't claim

your ambition and promise

and your addiction to fame

and everyone's got a dollar

sign after their name

when somebody wants you

you treat 'em just the same

so go on and pick up

you don't care what poison you choose

or what person you'll use

should've been me, yeah

shouldn't it be?

crushing quiet

crawls in through your window

from someone who wants you

but you'll never know

i'll pick up around you

clear everything out

leave you where i found you

i figured you out
