Look At Me Now - Caroline Polachek

Wrote myself a letter

Just a single question

When you finally get this

Where will you be?

Will you be a shipwreck or a star

Falling for a boy who doesn’t play guitar?

Now rewind the tape back to the start

Said I’d never leave you, but here we are

And you can’t look at me now

I haven’t changed, I’m still the same

But you can’t look at me now

A hand grenade to throw away

Now my friends all tell me

«Girl, you’re getting skinny

Have you not been sleeping?»

How could I be?

Trying to find the lightswitch in the dark

Burying the good girl I know I’m not

Now rewind the tape back to the start

Said I’d never leave you, but here we are

And you can’t look at me now

I haven’t changed, I’m still the same

But you can’t look at me now

A hand grenade to throw away

I can’t run anymore

Gotta stay right here and face the storm

I can’t run anymore

Where the wakeup call is all I know

I can’t run anymore

(I can’t run anymore)

Gotta stay right here and face the storm

I can’t run anymore

(I can’t run anymore)

You can’t look at me now

I haven’t changed, I’m still the same

But you can’t look at me now

A hand grenade to throw away

Look at me now

(I can’t run anymore)

You can’t look at me now

(I can’t run anymore)
