Tv Show Lyrics - Martha Wainwright - Martha Wainwright

I'm not such a good lover 

I'm a better talker 

So when you touch me there 

I'm scared that you'll see 

Not the way that I don't love you 

But the way that I don't love myself 

And there are things these days 

That can help you through a phase 

Like food & health & fear 

I prefer the beer 

Not the way that I don't love you 

But the way that I hate myself 

Oh when the cityscape is born 

From the ocean floor 

It speaks its native tongue 

Physical, subliminal 

Not the way that it left you cold 

But the way that you left yourself 

When the Moon falls from the Earth 

When the Sun, it fills its girth 

And I know we'll go howl at the night 

But still the sun will not hide our fight 

Oh, I laugh a lot 

But that's just a plot 

I found a way to make the night stay 

Not the way that I don't love you 

But the way that I hate myself 

It was Oprah 

On the TV show 

She told me so 

It was Oprah 

On the TV show 

She told me so 

Ah, it was Oprah 

On the TV show 

She told me so 

Not the way that I don't love you 

But the way that I love myself
