Left Alone - Fiona Apple
You made your major overtures
When you were a sure
and oritund mutt
And I was still a dewy 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
And 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
Cuz I'm hard
Too hard I 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 articulate
My woes are granular
The ants weigh more
than the elephants
Nothing nothing is manageable
So couldn't we skip
the valedictories
I can see a door there
Shut it and forget my number
Cuz I'm hard
Too hard I 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
