Wouldn't Be Surprised Lyrics
I used to be content with knowing nothing
Like someone hanging pictures in the dark
I ignored every warning and listened to my heart
Knowing it was deaf and dumb and blind and full of lies
You pulled the rug from under me
You left me in a desert with no trees
I'm suffering from shock and I'm feeling very lost
Wouldn't be surprised at the lives that this has cost
Take me to the sticks 'cause I'm fixed on seeing stars
I forget they're there
You don't see them down here
To see you moving on is more than hard
So don't make it worse by dragging me behind the cart
And telling me every regret you have is wreaking havoc with my heart
If you ever wanna take me back I hope I have more dignity than that
How're you supposed to breathe when your lungs are filled with frost?
Wouldn't be surprised at the lives that this has cost
Take me to the sticks 'cause I'm fixed on seeing stars
I forget they're there
You don't see them down here
One day the dust will settle down with my heart
I'll stop being resentful and ripped apart
Until then I've gotta grit my teeth
If he loved me he wouldn't leave
And that should be all I need
Like someone hanging pictures in the dark
I ignored every warning and listened to my heart
Knowing it was deaf and dumb and blind and full of lies
You pulled the rug from under me
You left me in a desert with no trees
Wouldn't be surprised at the lives that this has cost
Take me to the sticks 'cause I'm fixed on seeing stars
I forget they're there
You don't see them down here
So don't make it worse by dragging me behind the cart
And telling me every regret you have is wreaking havoc with my heart
If you ever wanna take me back I hope I have more dignity than that
Wouldn't be surprised at the lives that this has cost
Take me to the sticks 'cause I'm fixed on seeing stars
I forget they're there
You don't see them down here
I'll stop being resentful and ripped apart
Until then I've gotta grit my teeth
If he loved me he wouldn't leave
And that should be all I need
