Weakness - Margo Price

Sometimes I’m Virginia Woolf

Sometimes I’m James Dean

Sometimes I’m my only friend

And my own worst enemy

My right hand never knows

What my left one’s gonna do

But I never meant to cause the harm

That I have done to you

Sometimes I drink beaujolais

Sometimes I drink gin

Sometimes the whiskey does me right

Sometimes it does me in

You’ve seen all my darkest shades

And everything I’ve been

Still I can hurt myself much more

Than anyone else can

I’m running for no reason

I’m running and I’m blue

There’s no better cure for it

Than being next to you

I can’t hide what I am

I guess it’s plain to see

Sometimes my weakness is stronger than me

Sometimes my weakness is stronger than me

Sometimes I live in a penthouse

Sometimes I live in a shack

Sometimes I fall off the wagon

Like a train running off the track

But I reckon that I’ll jump back on it

Get this monkey off my back

Before I wind up back in prison

Or give myself another heart attack

I’m running for no reason

I’m running and I’m blue

There’s no better cure for it

Than being next to you

I can’t hide what I am

I guess it’s plain to see

Sometimes my weakness is stronger than me

Sometimes my weakness is stronger than me
