I Loved You, So What Lyrics by Ani Difranco

I Loved You, So What

Who's gonna give a shit?
Who's gonna take the call
Find out that the road ahead
Is painted on a wall
And you're turned up to top-volume
You're just sitting there in pause
With your feral little secret
Scratching at you with its claws
And you're trying hard to figure out
Just exactly how you feel
Before you end up parked, and sobbing
Forehead on the steering wheel
And who are you now?
And who were you then?
That you thought somehow
You could just pretend
You could figure it all out
The mathematics of regret
It's two beers to remember, now
And five to forget
I loved you so what, yeah,
I loved you so what
I loved you so what
How many times undone
Can one person be
As they're careening through the facade
Of their favorite fantasy
You just close your eyes slowly
Like you're waiting for a kiss
And hope some lowly little powder
Will pull you out of this
But none comes at first
And little comes at all
When inspiration finally hits you
It barely even breaks your fall
who were you then?
And who are you now?
And you can't pretend
That it'll all work out
Subtract out the impact
And the fall is all you get
So here's two beers to remember why
And three more to forget
I loved you so...
I loved you, so what
I loved you, so what
