I know I should

Foundations
Kate Nash



Thursday night, every thing's fine, except you've got that look in your eye
when I'm tellin' a story and you find it boring,
you're thinking of something to say.
You'll go along with it then drop it and humiliate me in front of our friends.

Then I'll use that voice that you find annoyin' and say something like
"yeah, intelligent input, darlin', why don't you just have another beer then?"

Then you'll call me a bitch
and everyone we're with will be embarrassed,
and I wont give a shit.

My finger tips are holding onto the cracks in our foundation,
and I know that I should let go,
but I can't.
And every time we fight I know it's not right,
every time that you're upset and I smile.
I know I should forget, but I can't.

You said I must eat so many lemons
'cause i am so bitter.
I said
"I'd rather be with your friends mate 'cause they are much fitter."

Yes, it was childish and you got aggressive,
and I must admit that I was a bit scared,
but it gives me thrills to wind you up.

Your face is pasty 'cause you've gone and got so wasted, what a surprise.
Don't want to look at your face 'cause it's makin' me sick.
You've gone and got sick on my trainers,
I only got these yesterday.
Oh, my gosh, I cannot be bothered with this.

Well, I'll leave you there 'till the mornin',
and I purposely won't turn the heating on
and dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with this one.

I like the song, do you know where the singer come from? She have a special accent...

Por otra parte, supongo que es algo que nos pasa a todos en algún momento con alguna persona...¡es tan difícil! Pero, en algún momento puede que descubramos que no hay nada de beneficioso en esa relación, y será el momento de cerrar esa puerta...solo hay que armarse de valor (o eso creo)

you are saying it all.
hay veces que las cosas no funcionan, pero no podemos evitar que nos gusten. es quizás una de las situaciones más difíciles de llevar y de superar...

hubo canciones intensas esa noche...
