Lydia Loveless - More Like Them lyrics

rate me

Well I hear that there's a party tonight

and I probably won't go, but thanks for the invite.

Cause I'd rather stay home and drink gallons of wine.

And that must be why nobody stops by.

Why I get so angry when I go out.

Why you think I think too much and I should just calm down.

You can't take me anywhere, so you hide me out.

Then you ask why I think you'll never love me,

I don't know why.

Why can't I be more like them?

The kind of people who go out of their way to make new friends.

I guess I don't give a good god-damn about you and I'm making amends.

Oh honey, why can't I be more like them?

You don't believe me when I say I want to be alone.

You think there's someone here when I don't pick up the phone.

And now you can't believe I won't talk, honey, our love.

Well, you'll get used to it, it's going to be a hell of a ride, though up.

Why can't I be more like them?

The kind of people who feel sad when relationships end.

Oh honey I don't want you now.

But it's not about him.

Oh I sure wish you were more like that.

Oh, and why can't I be more like them?

You get away with shit that I never will.

Honey you think I do these things to men just to be cruel?

Cause it's always got to be about wanting another man.

Oh, but she just needed some space.

Why can't I be like that?

Oh you just need to get laid?

Why can't I be like that?

Cause I gave you everything I had.

All my cheap ass beer and cigarettes.

Oh now you want your money back.

Well, I'm sorry, baby, but I still don't have it.

But why can't I be more like them?

The kind of people who can still manage to get upset.

Well if you that think I'm so fucking emotionally dead,

it's because I am.

I could leave you more like that.

Oh why can't I be more like them?
