Lyrics:

I will proudly pretend with you if that’s what you need for me to do for me to do for you I will proudly pretend with you I will proudly pretend that I’m a fool, I'm a fool I remember you told me I remember you told me I remember you told me there’d be days like this Get these golden handcuffs off me get this piano off my back, I wanna run I wanna run Hit and run types of conversations can’t get a word in edgewise except “Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh” I remember you told me I remember you told me I remember you told me there’d be days like this but what about years? months and weeks and years I guess I always thought that my life would be more like a makeover scene in a movie but you gotta suffer for yourself, baby suffer for yourself You’ve got this peculiar way of giving your help you say, bring out the tiny violin the choir of angels, and suffer for yourself, baby suffer for yourself I remember you told me I remember you told me I remember you told me there’d be days like this but it's been years months and weeks and years

Lyrics:

There may be no definite depth to my neediness because it may stretch as strange and as blank as a plane to infinity Yeah it may be as a pit trap in the woods Covered in branches and leaves and cracking twigs So you can’t hear the sound Of your falling body I lived alone, before I met you I lived alone, alone Now I need more There may be no definite depth to my neediness because it may stretch as strained and as blank as a plane to infinity it may be as dark as a well and quite as bottomless and it don't take your wishes on spare change, but your life your body your whole body More Now I need more I lived alone, before I met you Now I need more I’m writing your biography I can’t afford a chapter missing I’ve got to know everything
