you smile and say "obviously"
obviously, you're wrong
writing this is just like trying to milk
water out of stone
you cheated but i - i got caught
i should'nt care too much for the result
so you'll smile again
and lie to my face
saying it's alright, but your coins will keep
dropping from your pants (and on and on and on)
i will claim them mine
and we will play it all over and over again.

Once in a while

oh i'd never pretend i could tame
whatever it is that's inside of you
crawl to take a bite out of my hand
once in a while
oh i'd never pretend i could know
the truth way deeper than you do
shut me down completely with a single
word or two
once in a while
i should know better
i really do
than to let myself fall
so madly inlove with you.

Cars and Cigarettes

cars and cigarettes
i saw you in his car
friday night i'm out with a friend
he talks about the way i smoke
and i just light a cigarette
i heard you gave up smoking
you know it's too hard for me
tried, too many times since you left
but i'm a fucking addict
i don't think you can see me
cause it's raining and you don't care
i'll be around forever
trying to get rid of that cigarette
your boybfriend's got a nice car
i would love to try it one day
burn his fancy car seat
with my own cigarette

Elliott Song

elliott song [for elliott smith]
standing in a raincoat in hollywood
pretend that people see you like i know they should
but everyboy's busy, everyboy rush
they better pass your way fast 'fore they see you crash
skin like rocks and diamonds,eyes that pierce right through
you're bleeding through my soul now like you say you do
but they will keep on laughing,they will think you're strange
they'll sell you in a heartbeat, they will never change
standing in a raincoat singing your song
pretend i'm good as you were but i know i'm wrong
but everyboy's busy, everyboy rush
they better pass my way fast 'fore they see me crash

Last One

leave me with the signs of
bleeding fists upon my wall
it's never gonna get much easier you know
fifteen years and i'm still trying to
make some sense
let's just try and make the best out of this.

Dirty Water
03:23
|
|||
|
constant sorrow drains into my bathroom sink
alongside drops of blood from shaving creams
and candle lights blew off
soap floats surly safe before my skin
mascara from last night turned black
dirty water and a blade in an ashtray -
i smoke too much.
i like to wait a minute before i go and turn the water stream hard on
all those things she left around the tub,her dirty cigarettes,she smokes too much.
