girlwhowritesthings - so dumb Lyrics

Rounding off the teenage years
At the bottom of the heap again
Guess i used up all my wins
I remember a hand in mine
Wherever it goes i hope it finds
More success that i have since

I'm desperate
Ripping out lashes
Making up wishes
Trying to be clever and sneaky and
Awful
What was it all for
Just to up back here again
Back to wishing on stars
Thinking, "oh my god"
Never thought i could be the one
But i thought i could be enough
And now i look so dumb

Now i look so dumb
I look so dumb
Haven't got a thing to show anyone
We took a swing and we had a bad run
Now i look so i look so i look so dumb
You took my number, thought you'd ring
But you strung me up like old washing
Now i'm sitting here wondering where you went
'Cause i haven't a thing but the pillows in my bed

So dumb when you took my hand
Thought you'd never let go of it
So dumb when i pulled you close
And i thought i'd found myself a home
So dumb that i let you in
So dumb that i'm here again

I'm desperate
Ripping out lashes
Making up wishes
Trying to be clever and sneaky and
Awful
What was it all for
Just to up back here again
Back to wishing on stars
Thinking, "oh my god"
Never thought i could be the one
But i thought i could be enough
And now i look so dumb

Now i look so dumb
I look so dumb
Haven't got a thing to show anyone
We took a swing and we had a bad run
Now i look so i look so i look so dumb
You took my number, thought you'd ring
But you strung me up like old washing
Now i'm sitting here wondering where you went
'Cause i haven't a thing but the pillows in my bed

So this is growing up i fear
Remind me why i couldn't wait to get
To here
