HARD MAGIC – “Rut” – Lyrics
I woke up this morning
Tried to figure out what was wrong
I think I’m feeling fine
But I know I’m just going along
Whenever you’re around
I have this funny feeling inside
Well, I think I’m so smart
But I just want to run and hide
I know that you know
That I could be
Better than you’ve ever had
You know that I know
That you’ve been
Wishing what I’ll never have
I’m in a rut now baby
For just too long
Why, I don’t know
And you string me along
I’m in a rut
Well everytime I talk to you
I feel as though
I’m not getting through
But when I do (it never fails)
You turn it around and say you knew
Then what are you doing here
When my love could be waiting near
I know that you know
That I could be
Better than you’ve ever had
You know that I know
That you’ve been
Wishing what I’ll never have
I’m in a rut now baby
For just too long
Why, I don’t know
And you string me along
I’m in a rut
Well everytime I talk to you
I feel as though
I’m not getting through
But when I do (it never fails)
You turn it around and say you knew
Then what are you doing here
When my love could be waiting near
I know that you know
That I could be
Better than you’ve ever had
You know that I know
That you’ve been
Wishing what I’ll never have
I’m in a rut now baby
For just too long
Why, I don’t know
And you string me along
I’m in a rut
