Lyrics - I Should've Known by Mann Aimee


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.
