lyrics

I was never what you wanted. Was I girl?
You were lightning in a bottle. Twist and whirl.
Heard you had a nervous breakdown. Telekinetic pills.
Heard you're sleeping with the lights on now... Sweet clairvoyant thrills.

There were no crystal balls or convictions.
No diving rods or warnings.
No ethereal gifts from Heaven… but somehow…

I was – predicting the earthquake.
I was - predicting the earthquake.

You can blame it all on me. I’m so used to this.
You can say what you want about me. I don’t really care.
Let me ask ya one question. And I will close my lips.
How long did you think I’d put up – with your bully shit?

There were no crystal balls or convictions.
No diving rods or warnings.
No ethereal gifts from Heaven… but somehow…

I was – predicting the earthquake.
I was - predicting the earthquake
