John Grant - I Hate This Town lyrics

(Verse) Or fine as it was for me To see your face today I guess I knew that it would happen at some point And I dreaded it because I knew That you would be so kind You could've died you've got it right down to a science So you observe the strict rules laid out in the books of etiquette And tell me you I enjoy my stay And I feel numb and I can't believe That I was stupid enough to leave my bed today If I'm so smart then why's this happening (Chorus) You know I hate this f**ing town You cannot even leave your f**ing house Without running into someone who no longer cares about you sponsored links Somebody who you desperately want to see But you know it's only going to cause more grief But there's nothing left to say And he can't hear you anyway (Verse) It's so confusing 'cause I really want To hate you, but my intellect reminds me That that doesn't make no sense And I wanted to be your friend But I couldn't pull it off in the end And I'm disappointed with myself as I thought I could But then again you always made it clear That you do not care either way Which begs the question How can I still claim to love you You told me time and time again That you don't lose you always win And that to make an effort would just be beneath you (Chorus) You know I hate this f**ing town You cannot even leave your f**ing house Without running into someone who no longer cares about you Somebody who you desperately want to see But you know it's only going to cause more grief But there's nothing left to say And he can't hear you anyway Now I'm packing my bags again And you are not in the saddle then
