"I'm Through" lyrics
Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit Lyrics
"I'm Through"
(originally by Vic Chesnutt)
Forget everything I ever told you
I'm sure I lied way more than twice
But understand I am not Emily Post
You know I'm nowhere near that precise
And I struggle with these etiquettes like you wouldn't believe
I'm puzzled by the policy
'Cause after everything else you draw out of me
You still expect cute curtsies
But I'm through, through, through
Carrying you on my shoulders
And I'm through, through, through
Hiding
I'm through, through, through
Living my life for you
Yes, I hope for both our sakes
I'm through, through, through
I hope you're happy now with your hold on me
It sure struck me awful strong
And don't you dare call this disloyalty
There's no way you could be more wrong
I'm just dragging my devotion in a last-ditch retreat
Seeking some safety
I'm tired of bleeding for no good reason
Is that so hard to see?
But I'm through, through, through
Carrying you on my shoulders
And I'm through, through, through
Hiding
I'm through, through, through
Living my life for you
Yes, I hope for both our sakes
I'm through, through, through

Trampled By Turtles - "Wildflowers" You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
Sail away, kill off the hours
You belong somewhere you feel free
Run away, find you a lover
Go away somewhere all bright and new
And...
John Prine - "I Remember Everything" I've been down this road before
I remember every tree
Every single blade of grass
Holds a special place for me
And I remember every town
And every hotel room
And every song I ever sang
On a guitar...
Brandi Carlile - "Right On Time" Come back now, even if you call me out
You might be angry now of course you are
I'm scared too, didn't mean to take it out on you
I know I always do, you're the strongest person in the room
Turn back...
The Band Of Heathens - "Look At Miss Ohio" Oh me, oh my, oh, won't you look at Miss Ohio?
She's running around with her rag-top down
She says she wants to do right, just not right now
Gonna drive to Atlanta and live out this fantasy
Running...
The Jayhawks - "Everybody Knows" Tell me now if you came sneaking up behind
Would you know me and see behind the smile
I can change like colors on a wall
Hoping no one else will find what lies beneath it all
I think I hide it all so...
