I Shouldve Known - Lyrics by Mann Aimee


Lyrics
I should thank you almostno one could kill it off until you bled itbut I got rid of that ghost'though certain habits remain imbeddedwith the shadow of a doubtbut baby it was you who fed itand I don't know what else to saybut I think you get it.        I should've known        it was coming down to this        I should've known        you would betray me but without the kiss        I should've known        the kind of set-up it is.
And always isn't alwayswhen it's not your photograph that I've beenkeepingbut you still live in those dayswhen I'd stay awake just to watch you sleepingyou delivered that blowbut it left a mark on me that you're not seeingand I don't know what else you hearbut it's not me weeping I should've known it was coming down to this I should've known you would betray me but without the kiss I should've known the kind of set-up it is.I should've seen the cracks in the ceilingand the mirror covered up with dustbut I was busy talking on the phone
I should've seen the obstacles but I said,this house was built for ushellois anybody home? I should've known the minute that we hit the wall I should've known the writing was upon the stall I should've known 'cause Rome was starting to falland I should thank you, almost.
