Foundations by Kate Nash

Thursday night, everything's fine
Except you've got that look in your eye
When I'm telling a story, and you find it boring
You're thinking of something to say
You'll go along (1)________ it, then drop it
And humiliate me in front of our friends

Then I'll use that (2)__________ that you (3)________ annoying
And say something like,
"Yeah, (4)______________________ input, darling.
Why don't you just (5)________ another beer then?"

Then you'll (6)________ me a bitch
And everyone we're with (7)________ be embarrassed
And I won't give a shit

My (8)____________________ are holding onto
The (9)____________ in our foundation
And I (10)________ that I should let go, but I can't
And (11)__________ time we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're (12)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
You said I must eat so (13)________ lemons
'Cause I am so bitter
I said, "I'd rather be (14)________ your friends, mate,
'Cause they are much fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I must admit that I was a bit scared
But it (15)__________ me thrills to wind you up

My (16)____________________ are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know (17)________ I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
Your face is pastey
'Cause you've gone and got so wasted
What a surprise
Don't (18)________ to look at your face, 'cause it's making me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I only got (19)__________ yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be bothered with this
Well, I'll leave you there 'till the morning
And I purposely won't turn the heating on
And dear God, I hope I'm not (20)__________ with this one

My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every time (21)________ you're (22)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And every (23)________ we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And every time we (24)__________ I know it's not right
Every time (25)________ you're upset and I smile
I (26)________ I should forget, but I can't
