And after waiting, fighting patiently on my knees
All the other stuff tired itself out first, not me

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

Now every other man I see
Remind me of the one man who disappointed me
Wait till I get him back

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

My ills are articulate; my woes are granular
The ants weigh more than the elephants
Nothing, nothing is manageable

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 3h

That I don't know of your sins
Until you are ready to confess
But all the time, all the time
I'll know, I'll know

I'm gonna fuck it up again

From the roots of my soul comes a gentle coercion
And I ran my hand o'er a strange inversion
A vacancy that just did not belong

Give us something familiar, something similar
To what we know already that will keep us steady
Steady
Steady going nowhere

I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me
Be kind to me, or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine
I seem to you to seek a new disaster every day

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
But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie

Fast as you can, baby
Run, free yourself of me
Fast as you can

The red isn't the red we painted, it's
Just rust

And I look back and the fact is
I had fun, fumbling around
All the advice I shunned

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 13h

You know how to get along humming

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 14h

But I'm as good as asleep
I bet you didn't know
It'd take the lot of it away

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

I'm gonna get him back
I am, I'm gonna get him back
I really am, I'm gonna get him back
I'm gonna get him back

Fiona Apple Bot @fionaapplebot.bsky.social · 16h

Singing again, sing, sing again
How can I deal with this if he won’t get with this?
Am I gonna heal from this? He won’t admit to it
Nothing to figure out; I gotta get him out

And in a little while we'll only have to wave
No, not baby anymore
If I need you, I'll just use your simple name

See myself somethin' awful
A voice once stentorian is now again
Meek and muffled

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

Better that I break the window
Than forget what I had to say
Or miss what I should see
Or break him or her or me

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

Belied your fort of lace

I tried to dance but lost my nerve

We don't worry anymore, 'cause we know when the guff comes, we get brave

Wait till I get him back
He won't have a back to scratch
Yeah, keep turning that chin
And you will see my face as I figure how to kill what I cannot catch

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