"Every False Embrace" lyrics
"Every False Embrace"
I wasn't worried when I knew I'd see you there
I was worried when I knew that I had to
Give it all away
Leave it all to fate
But I guess I'm gonna lay down
I guess I'm gonna take it
Make my bed and lay in it
But when I see you and you're with her
I wish I could go blind with the hurt
I can't believe you both sold me out
Like a cheap-red-wine stain on the couch
Hope you're happier now
Hope you know that somehow
When all is done and said
I just hope you're happier now
There's nothing I can say
You know I couldn't stay
And I'm leaving either way
Oh I know I'm happier now
Thought I'd find solace in the thought of moving on
But all the knowledge that I didn't want flips me
In and out again
Every false embrace
So I guess that's how we'll play it
I'll lay right down and take it
Hope apathy's contagious
But when I see you and you're with her
I wish I could go blind with the hurt
I can't believe you both sold me out
Like a cheap-red-wine stain on the couch
Hope you're happier now
Hope you know that somehow
When all is done and said
I just hope you're happier now
There's nothing I can say
You know I couldn't stay
And I'm leaving either way
Oh I know I'm happier now
(I know I'm happier now)
(I know I'm happier now)

Barrie - "Tal Uno" Your band's doing better than my band
I'll go to your show, but I'm not gonna dance
You broke your wrist and got a cast on your hand, covered in peace signs
Your sister cut your hair but she gave you...
The Knocks & Dragonette - "Slow Song" Staring at the the ceiling
I can feel you trying doors I'd opened up before
But I'm the one with all the keys, and I'm the one
Who's walking around here like I own the joint
Oh, I got ways to shake...
Yellow House - "Saviour Complex" It all started to unravel in the spring of '94
Looking back now, it seems the writing was on the wall
You've never seen a kid with a heart so sore
If I could take back all I did
If I could take back...
Wild Nothing - "Only Heather" Dressed in the moonlight and paler than bone
She has got something that I've never known
I couldn't explain it I won't even try
She is so lovely she makes me feel high
Cause I'm with Heather
Yeah...
TOPS - "Outside" Outside, you don't know why
Tell each other in the middle of the night
Talk about it like you really want to know
What she running around for?
Rat-tat the door unlatch
Someone here to take you back...
