The path is clear to follow through

It hurt more than it ought to hurt, I went to work to cultivate a callus
And now I'm hard, too hard to know

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 2h

Yet unaware of the depth upon which he coasts
And he finds a home in me

And if he wants her, he should get her
'Cause I think he thinks she's worth it

Just the filthy pane that I was looking through
So I had to break the window
It just had to be
Better that I break the window

What you did to me made me
See myself somethin' awful
A voice once stentorian is now again
Meek and muffled

This is not about love
'Cause I am not in love
In fact I can't stop falling out

So I'm gonna try to be still now
Gonna renounce the mill a little while and
If we had a double-king-sized bed
We could move in it and I'd soon forget

Though I try to talk sense to myself
But I just won't listen
Won't you go away, turn yourself in
You're no good at confession

He did a commendable job

I've got a lot to lose
And I'm bettin' high so I'm beggin' you
Before it ends just tell me where to begin
Hey, what I need is a good defense

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 11h

Curious, you're looking down your nose at me while you appease

Jonathan, call again, take me to Coney Island
Take me on the train
Kiss me while I calculate and calibrate, and heaven's sakes
Don't make me explain

And then that way you'll let me stay, skirting the skirt like I want to
And I will try hard to hold on to you with open arms
But don't let me ruin me

You'll never feel the heat of this soul
My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown... to you
You'll say don't fear your dreams; it's easier than it seems
You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 15h

And maybe they'll move from the periphery
Buy themselves their own plot of land
And I'll care in a different capacity, I'll just be
Hoping he makes a good family man

The answer's always been in
Clear view

Steady, steady, steady, steady
Steady going nowhere

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

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 19h

And I can love the same man and the same bed and the same city
But not in the same room, it's a pity, but

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 20h

So I will keep a deliberate pace

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 21h

Every single night I endure the flight
Of little wings of white flame butterflies in my brain

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 22h

The answer's always been in
Clear view
But even when the window's clean
I still can't see for the fact

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 23h

And you've early closed your curtains
I'll wait by the backstage door
While you try to find the lines to speak your mind
And pry it open, hoping for an encore

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 1d

Oh, your gaze is dangerous
And you fill your space so sweet
