The Idiot
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He's not here, he's out buying cigarettes
And every day I get a funny feeling
We both know how it feels, we both know how it feels
We both know how it feels
Some kind of idiot at the start
One in a million, break your heart
Some kind of idiot at the start
Sick lies killed all the hope in my heart
Go slow, it's slippery on the patio
My God, I'm sick of looking out for you
We both know how it feels, we both know how it feels
We both know how it feels
Some kind of idiot at the start
One in a million, break your heart
Some kind of idiot at the start
Sick lies killed all the hope in my heart
Do you know what you put me through
I may not ever trust anyone again in my entire life
Do you know exactly what I could've been
Deep down, I know I am better than this
I know I am better than this
Some kind of idiot at the start
One in a million, break your heart
Some kind of idiot at the start
Sick lies killed all the hope in my heart
Some kind of idiot at the start
One in a million, break your heart
We both know how it feels, we both know how it feels
We both know how it feels, we can't be alone again
We both know how it feels, we both know how it feels
We both know how it feels, we can't be alone again
We both know how it feels, we both know how it feels
We both know how it feels, we can't be alone again
