Elliott Smith - Either/Or: Expanded Edition

I Figured You Out

I've seen you watching her every time she crosses the floor
So won't you just go talk to the one you really adore?
I'm getting pretty used to being the one you always ignore
When somebody wants you, I've seen it before

You're every kind of collar, there ain't nothing that you won't claim
Your ambition and promise, your addiction to fame
And everyone has a dollar sign after their name
And when somebody wants you, you treat 'em just the same

So go on and pick up
You don't care what poison you choose and what person you lose
It should've been me, yeah, shouldn't it be?

A crushing quiet blows in through your window
To someone who wants you that you'll never know
But I'll pick up around you and clear everything out

Leave you where I found you, I figured you out
Leave you where I found you, I figured you out
