The Manimals - Gone With the Wind Fucked Me Up for Life Lyrics

When I was nine, I had boys on the brain
Dreaming about a love that would wreck me like a hurricane
And I’d be a lady who couldn’t be tamed
As I listened to the hi-fi and turned the page
All good things must come in disguise
Says he doesn’t like me, but I see through his lies
For the next few years I would ruin his life
Cause love is wild, the poets write, and so am I
It hurt all the time, oh yeah
But there were no lines back then Cutting my mind in two
All of the highs weren’t so...
When I was nine, I would sing all the parts
But the best were the ones who died of broken hearts
The kind of girls who would forget to be smart
And pin it all on a pair of crossed stars
It hurt all the time, oh yeah
But there were no lines back then
Cutting my mind in two
All of the highs weren’t so...
But one day I chose to be safe
Forget those storms I always chased
And I guess it seemed kind of brave
But there were things that I erased
When everyone else falls in love
They show their scars, lower their guard
But I left it on the schoolyard
Where I loved four times too hard
It hurt all the time, oh yeah
But there were no lines back then Cutting my mind in two
All of the highs weren’t so out of sight

When I was nine, I had boys on the brain
Dreaming about a love that would wreck me like a hurricane
And I’d be a lady who couldn’t be tamed
As I listened to the hi-fi and turned the page
All good things must come in disguise
Says he doesn’t like me, but I see through his lies
For the next few years I would ruin his life
Cause love is wild, the poets write, and so am I
It hurt all the time, oh yeah
But there were no lines back then Cutting my mind in two
All of the highs weren’t so...
When I was nine, I would sing all the parts
But the best were the ones who died of broken hearts
The kind of girls who would forget to be smart
And pin it all on a pair of crossed stars
It hurt all the time, oh yeah
But there were no lines back then
Cutting my mind in two
All of the highs weren’t so...
But one day I chose to be safe
Forget those storms I always chased
And I guess it seemed kind of brave
But there were things that I erased
When everyone else falls in love
They show their scars, lower their guard
But I left it on the schoolyard
Where I loved four times too hard
It hurt all the time, oh yeah
But there were no lines back then Cutting my mind in two
All of the highs weren’t so out of sight
