So I'm running to you, you're on the way back from down the fabulous premiere

The Shebelle, just old black clothes

Newly colored fake black hair

You look me over like maybe I might be okay every now and then

Man you tell me bout that groovy down town

I just did your fame and its new best friend

He's getting 10 signed originals, none writing your environmental fund



I used to fall for it all

Now I'm gone gone gone



You've got a book tour, and there's a bidding war for your latest screenplay rights

Your subs are here and the leaf work's gonna land you a feature in the Times

You throw out the book you're reading

Something about empathy

You say your heart is all so very open

Now we can love so completely

And your kids the most multi-dimensional child his teachers ever known



I used to fall for it all

Now I'm gone gone gone



Of course your knowledge is perfection

But you miss bound on the side

Cause you're entitled to some extracurricular fun at night

Your love, it punctuates his words with his fists on the walls beside your head

He needs to express his feelings, that's what you said he said

And you believed that



You used to run pretty good con with young terrible types than me

I watched you lie to everyone but you'd never lie to me

Cause I knew I was all the things you said, more special than anyone

Until someone more useful to me came along and you and I were done

And now you're on the prowl for something new, naive, sweet and dumb



I used to fall for it all

Now I'm gone gone gone
