Intro:
Verse:
Life on the margins
Little looks we have to steal
I want to run like vagrants hand in hand across this field
But I know the way you are I could fall into the star
But it's not easy for everybody to fall in love
Verse:
The city walls are reigning perilous and tall over dark chilling streets
It's not weakness when you fall
Oh it's just too much too fast
Crash that column into the wall
Don't let them tell you that there's a right way to fall in love
And she says
Prechorus:
I want to live my life
Don't want to waste my time
I want a man who makes me feel like a woman
Chorus:
I used to be your biggest fan
I used to be your biggest fan
Now I find that you are slipping in my estimation
I used to be your biggest fan
I used to be your biggest fan
(once)
And now I know that you could never love someone like me
Verse:
I used to run with my whiskers to the sun
I used to shove my weakness like a bullet shoots a gun
But I say
Close in on me, my foundations came undone
I said, why oh why is there so much hate in this world
Verse:
N.C. A7(same as verse from now on)
Belt out a song, some vicious call-to-arms gone wrong
But we've tended now we're going fifty thousand strong
This one's a dream so shut your mouth and sing along
Oh the science of music is all stupid and cruel
Prechorus:
And I know I want to live my life
Don't want to waste my time
Trying to strike the right lyrical density
Chorus:
I used to be your biggest fan
I used to be your biggest fan
Now I find that you are slipping in my estimation
I used to be your biggest fan
I used to be your biggest fan
But now I know that you could never love someone like me
And I know I want to live my life
Don't want to waste my time

I want to be the toast of the shanty-town
You stick around a while
And you cut your teeth
You can't go home
I used to be
I used to be
I used to be
I used to be
I used to be
I used to be
I used to be
I used to be
I used to be your biggest fan
And then I saw you in a doorway
For a moment you looked tender and I knew
/
That I could never ever ever ever ever ever touch you
Because you might, oh you might touch back
Oh yes, you might, oh you might touch back
/
Well I made a mistake, well I made two
One for me and one for you
And then I knew
That I would measure everybody against you
Yes I would measure everybody against you
Well I used to be
I used to be
I used to be
I used to be
I used to be
