Strange Loop
Now if you weren't such a sucker
For finishing everything you started up
And if I weren't beside myself
There'd be just the two of us
I made the gruesome discovery
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
That everybody else was right about me and now the whistle has been blown
And I've been diagnosed
With a heart that's a known unknown
[Chorus]
So tell me, baby, what's so good
About being understood?
I would be terrified if I could read your mind
And the real me
You couldn't even identify
So this is what you get
This is what you get
Now I can't wait
There's so much I don't want to tell you
And there's so much that you don't want me to see
And darling there's so much you'd like to change
If you were me
But if you were me I'd give me a piece of your mind
A self-portrait peering through the polygraph lines
There's no photogenic feelings, no rich inner life
Just a strange loop
And I'm once, twice, a thousand times removed
[Chorus]
So tell me, baby, what's so good
About feeling understood?
Now my time might be a joke but it
Never gets old
And my true self was beyond help
Long ago
So this is what you get
This is what you get
Now if you weren't such a sucker
For being there when I need you
I would be terrified
If I could read your mind
So tell me, baby, what's so good
About being understood?
