Elliott Smith - I Figured You Out lyrics

[Elliott Smith - I Figured You Out lyrics]

I’ve seen you watching
Her every time she crosses the floor
So won’t you just go and talk to
The one you really adore

I’m getting pretty used to being
The one that you always ignore
When somebody wants you i’ve seen it before

You’re every kind of collar
There ain’t nothing that you won’t claim
Your ambition and promise
And your addiction to fame

And everyone’s got a dollar
Sign after their name
When somebody wants you
You treat ’em just the same

So go on and pick up
You don’t care what poison you choose
And what person you lose
It should’ve been me, yeah shouldn’t it be?

A crushing quiet
Blows in through your window
To someone who wants you
That you’ll never know
But I’ll pick up around you
And clear everything out
Leave you where I found you
I figured you out
Leave you where I found you
I figured you out
