MARTHA WAINWRIGHT - Who Was I Kidding? lyrics

Left the pain before the dawn

She never thought it would or could be easy

Been inclined to carry on

Hold my hard head

And watch you walk out on me

See the tears one by one

They fall down my hard head forevermore

Forever into the ground

Deep down

Far as you can

Go out tonight and meet the dawn again

It'd be nice to see an old friend

Learn to accept the things I am

I never liked myself before

Now even less

When it rains it pours

Down my hard head forevermore

Forever into the ground

Deep down

Far as you can

Who was I kidding?

Who was I kidding?

Oh, your record label hasn't come through yet

You've gained some weight

And all you can think is

When the Romeo's gonna show

Oh, I know, babe

You're the best thing yet

But take it from me

I would if I could

Fuck it all

Your mother loves you

Your daddy needs you

Your brother feeds you

Far as you can

Who was I kidding?
