Until The Led - Vic Chesnutt

Knowing what I know now

I should’ve had a cow

I didn’t realize

You were to be despised

I must have been

One of history’s stupidest men

'cause everything was perfect in my head

Until the lead started hitting me

With benefit of hindsight

I can see your ass wasn’t right

Maybe I’m mighty dull

But you’re pathological

I never guessed

You meant no, when you said yes

Everything was perfect in my head

Until the lead started hitting me

It didn’t take long at all

Until the zen started to to fall

All of the people you faked

Suddenly saw their mistake

You never thought

That I could survive the shock

Everything was perfect in my head

Until the lead started hitting me
