Eleanor Friedberger - Does Turquoise Work? lyrics

I heard him say I'd rather hurt myself than let you hurt me Was he talking about me? I heard him say I've been trying to sleep fourteen hours a day Was he talking about her?

Look in the top drawer But quiet, don't think The ugly picture Was up for eight minutes today The complete idiot Was Lord for an hour There was crystal deception At the disappointing picnic The new dawn Serves as memory loss meters The shapes in the road Were remedies for last week's mistakes I used his foot as a phone And said something, something No never mind, nothing
