Oh Well Lyrics - Extraordinary Machine - Fiona Apple

What you did to me made me 

See myself something different 

Though I try to talk sense to myself 

But I just won't listen 

Won't you go away 

Turn yourself in 

You're no good at confession 

Before the image that you burned me in 

Tries to teach you a lesson 

What you did to me made me see myself somethin' awful 

A voice once stentorian is now again meek and muffled 

It took me such a long time to get back up the first time you did it 

I spent all I had to get it back, and now it seems I've been outbidded 

My peace and quiet was stolen from me 

When I was looking with calm affection 

You were searching out my imperfections 

What wasted unconditional love 

On somebody 

Who doesn't believe in the stuff 

You came upon me like a hypnic jerk 

When I was just about settled 

And when it counts you recoil 

With a cryptic word and leave a love belittled 

Oh what a cold and common low way to go 

When I was feeding on the need for you to know me 

Devastated at the rate you fell below me 

What wasted unconditional love 

On somebody 

Who doesn't believe in the stuff 

Oh, well
