Great Lyrics

My daughter played this song by Beck for me today and I'm just mesmerized by the lyrics. You have to listen to this. You can find it on Media Player by doing a search. It reminded me of a few relationships I had as a teen where I had to give up on people and leave them behind. Here are the lyrics:

Beck - Lost Cause Lyrics


Your sorry eyes
cut through the bone
Make it hard to leave
you alone
Leave you here
wearing your wounds
Waving
your guns at somebody new

[chorus]:
Baby you're a
lost,
baby you're a lost
Baby you're a lost cause

There's too many people
you used to know
They see you coming,
they see you go
They know your
secrets,
and you know theirs
This town is crazy,
nobody
cares

[chorus]

I'm tired of fighting,
I'm tired of fighting
Fighting for a lost cause

There's a place you are going
You ain't never
been before
No one laughing
at your back now
No
one's standing at your door
That's what you
thought love was for

[chorus]

I'm tired of
fighting, I'm tired of fighting
Fighting for a lost
cause
