At My Expense - Thrush Hermit

The same situation’s getting sadder by the second

The air just filled with smoke

Until somebody spoke

I never felt as foolish as you made me feel

Why’d you have to be so vague

You always came across so vague

And I poured my heart out

When the ship goes down, remind me to thank her

'Cause we’re all gonna be tied to the anchor

And you and your friends can have a laugh at my expense

'Cause I don’t have a defense

The only thing that matters if it matters at all

Is the way that the pieces fall

And why you always stand so tall

The only thing that matters if it matters at all

Is what we don instead

If you quit while you’re ahead

When the ship goes down, remind me to thank her

'Cause we’re all gonna be tied to the anchor

And you and your friends can have a laugh at my expense

'Cause I don’t have a defense
