Photographs

作曲 : Julia Darling

I really didn't mean to hurt you

It's just we're such a mess

I've cleaned up too many child boys

In my worn out checkered past

I can't be bothered with the aftertaste

I won't be wasting all my time

I'm too busy looking out for yours

No one is loooking out for mine

So I'll be the one who let you down

I'll be the one who never cared

I'll be the woman from your past

In the photograph that you ripped in half

I'll be the one you could never count on

Cause a warm gun is easier sung than done

You're gonna be popular with other girls

Once you tell 'em about me

They're gonna line up at your broken door

With offerings of sympathy

And that platonic embrace you're in

They'll only wind up on the floor

Cause you're needy and dependant and demanding

It's gonna cost her so much more

Then she'll be the one who let you down

She'll be the one who never cared

She'll be the woman from your past

In the photograph that you ripped in half

She'll be the one you could never count on

Cause a warm gun is easier sung than done

Now as history repeats itself

Someone is bound to get me back

And I suppose only then will I know

What it meant to leave you like that

That is you're all upstanding now

You're stable and over me

Ain't it funny how the tables turn

But what a time to finally see

That I was the one who set you free

I was the one who pushed you forward

And I'm the woman from your past

In a photograph that you've since restored

I'll be the reason you're good to someone

But thanking me is easier said than done
