So Iâm running to you, youâre on the way back from down the fabulous premiere
The Shebelle, just old black clothes
Newly colored fake black hair
You look me over like maybe I might be okay every now and then
Man you tell me bout that groovy down town
I just did your fame and its new best friend
Heâs getting 10 signed originals, none writing your environmental fund
I used to fall for it all
Now Iâm gone gone gone
Youâve got a book tour, and thereâs a bidding war for your latest screenplay rights
Your subs are here and the leaf workâs gonna land you a feature in the Times
You throw out the book youâre reading
Something about empathy
You say your heart is all so very open
Now we can love so completely
And your kids the most multi-dimensional child his teachers ever known
I used to fall for it all
Now Iâm gone gone gone
Of course your knowledge is perfection
But you miss bound on the side
Cause youâre entitled to some extracurricular fun at night
Your love, it punctuates his words with his fists on the walls beside your head
He needs to express his feelings, thatâs what you said he said
And you believed that
You used to run pretty good con with young terrible types than me
I watched you lie to everyone but youâd never lie to me
Cause I knew I was all the things you said, more special than anyone
Until someone more useful to me came along and you and I were done
And now youâre on the prowl for something new, naive, sweet and dumb
I used to fall for it all
Now Iâm gone gone gone
