dirty ickes

when we broke up you told me to try and find myself

so i found myself in someone else's bed

you could say i'm a fool

but you've had four boyfriends since

and i've learned to love myself more than i could ever love you

so i taught myself french

so i could tell you i loved you

in ways that you could never understand

and i taught myself norse

just to sit on your back porch

i'm not going anywhere

except i am going to die

so i taught myself spanish

so i could tell you i loved you

in ways that you could never understand

and i taught myself sign language

just to speak to myself

when we broke up you told me to try and find myself

so i found myself in someone else's bed

you could call me a fool

but i've had four girlfriends since

and i've learned to love myself more than i could ever love you
