Lyrics Vic Chesnutt

Vic Chesnutt

I'm Through

Forget everything I ever told you

I'm sure I lied way more than twice

But understand I am not Emily post

You know I'm nowhere near that precise

And I struggle with these etiquettes

Like you wouldn't believe, I'm puzzled by the policies

'Cause after everything else you draw out of me

You still expect cute curtsies

But I'm through, through, through

Carrying you on my shoulders

And I'm through, through, through

Hiding

And I'm through, through, through

Living my life for you

Yes, I hope for both our sakes

I'm through, through, through

I hope you are happy with your hold on me

It sure stuck me awful strong

And don't you dare call this disloyalty

There's no way you could be more wrong

I'm just dragging my devotion in a last ditch retreat

Seeking some safety

I'm tired of bleeding for no good reason

Is that so hard to see?

And I'm through, through, through

Carrying you on my shoulders

And I'm through, through, through

Hiding

And I'm through, through, through

Living my life for you

Yes, I hope for both our sakes

I'm through, through, through
