i'll know-fiona apple
so be it, im your crowbar
if that's what i am so far
until you get out of this mess
and i will pretend
that i dont know of your sins
until you are ready to confess
but all the time,
all the time,
i'll know, i'll know.
& you can use my skin
to bury secrets in.
& i will settle you down.
& at my own suggestion,
i will ask no questions.
while i do my thing in the
background.
but all the time,
all the time
i'll know, i'll know.
baby, i cant help you out
while she's still around.
so for the time being,
im being patient.
and amidst this bitterness,
if you'll just consider this,
even if it don't make sense.
all the time,
give it time.
& when the crowd becomes
your burden
& you've early closed
your curtain
i'll wait by the backstage door.
while you try to find
the lines to speak your mind
& pry it open,
hoping for an encore.
but if it gets too late,
for me to wait
for you to find you love me
and tell me so.
it's okay.
dont need to say it...
