Faint Praise Lyrics

who wants to be the truest friend?
i need to know, i can't just pretend
it starts so well but it always ends...
am i not quite what you were looking for?
a little old, a little tired, a little too sincere?
or are you just not sure what you're looking for?
well, you should know by now
you should know by now

i'll do for now, but keep on shopping around
i'm good for a day trip, but not for the long haul
your faint praise is gonna kill me one day

am i not quite what you were looking for?
a little old, a little tired, a little too sincere?
or are you just not sure what you're looking for?
well, you should know by now
you should know by now
so later on, when you are sleeping
and you think you're very safe
i'll break and enter your apartment
inventorising all your failings
because your jokes were mediocre
and the s** was just ok
and your kisses merely average
not the worst but not the best
and your art is nothing special
i've seen worse - i've seen much better
and i never liked your style
or the way you wore your hair
and now your friends, they frankly bore me
like the places where you spend your time

(so i don't suppose you'll miss me)
but you should know by now
you should know by now
