Left Alone Songtext / Lyric

You made you make your overtures

When you were a sure and orotund mutt

And I was still a dewey petal

Rather than a moribund slut

My love wrecked you

You packed to twirl your skirt at the palace

It hurt more than it ought to hurt

I went to work to cultivate a callus



And now I'm hard, too hard to know

I don't cry when I'm sad anymore, no no

Tears calcify in my tummy

Fears coincide with the tow



How can I ask anyone to love me

When all I do is beg to be left alone?






Oh, when I try to love

I can love the same man in the same bed in the same city

But not in the same room, it's a pity, but

Oh, it never bothered me before

Not 'til this guy, what a guy, oh God what a good guy

And I can't even enjoy him



And now I'm hard, too hard to know

I don't cry when I'm sad anymore, no no

Tears calcify in my tummy

Fears coincide with the tow



How can I ask anyone to love me

When all I do is beg to be left

When all I do is beg to be left

When all I do is beg to be left alone

Alone, alone



My ills are reticulate

My woes are granular

The ants weigh more than the elephants

Nothing, nothing is manageable

So couldn't we stop the validictories?

I can see a the door there

Shut it and forget my number



And now I'm hard, too hard to know

I don't cry when I'm sad anymore, no no

Tears calcify in my tummy

Fears coincide with the tow



How can I ask anyone to love me

When all I do is beg to be left

When all I do is beg to be left

When all I do is beg to be left alone
