Ani Difranco - Careless Words lyrics

You really gave me hell, big talker Polluted the well You really spoke your mind, big talker At least your mind at the time Now I'm wearing your words, big talker Like necklaces and rings Just glad it wasn't me, big talker That said all those things Never before could I picture Even one foot out the door Careless words, careless words Say no more But now that that door has been opened It can never be closed Careless words, careless words I can never unknow I can never unknow Tried to keep my heart pure, big talker But it came out stained Tried to stay in love, big talker But instead I'm in pain I learned as a child, big talker Just shut the whole thing down That polluted well, big talker That whole polluted town And never before could I picture Even one foot out the door Careless words, careless words Say no more But now that that door has been opened It can never be closed Careless words, careless words I can never unknow I can never unknow No sleep for me, big talker Just one long migraine One that sparks and flares, big talker When I say your name Where went your love? big talker Cuz that's where I go I'm no longer here, big talker I'm searching high and low And never before could I picture Even one foot out the door Careless words, careless words Say no more But now that that door has been opened It can never be closed Careless words, careless words I can never unknow You can never unknow
