Fiona Apple - Fast As You Can
from the album "When The Pawn"
from the "Fast As You Can" single (radio edit)
I let the beast in too soon
I don't know how to live without my hand on his throat
I fight him always and still oh darling, it's so sweet
You think you know how crazy, how crazy I am
You say you don't spook easy
You won't go, but I know and I pray that you will
Fast as you can
Baby run-free yourself of me
Fast as you can
I may be soft in your palm but I'll soon grow hungry for a fight
And I will not let you win
My pretty mouth will frame the pharses that will disprove your faith in man
So if you catch me trying to find my way into your heart from under your
skin
Fast as you can
Baby scratch me out-free yourself
Fast as you can
Fast as you can
Baby scratch me out-free yourself
Fast as you can
Sometimes my mind don't shake and shift
But most of the time it does
And I get to the place when I'm begging for a lift
Or I'll drown in the wonders and the was
And I'll be your girl, if you say it's a gift
And you give me some more of your drugs
Yeah, I'll be your pet, if you just tell me it's a gift
Cause I'm tired of whys, choking on whys
Just need a little because, because
I let the beast in and then I even tried forgiving him
But it's too soon; so I'll fight again, again, again, again
And for a little while more I'll soar the uneven winds
Complain and blame the sterile land
But if you're getting any bright ideas
Quiet dear I'm blooming within
Fast as you can
Baby wait watch me I'll be out
Fast as I can
Maybe late but at least about
Fast as you can
Leave me, let this thing run its route
Fast as you can
Fast as you can
Fast as you can
Fast as you can
