Artist/Band: Patty Griffin
Lyrics for Song: Every Little Bit
Lyrics for Album: Living With Ghosts [1996]



It's funny how a morning turns a love to shame

Disguised and disfigured, and you thought I tasted like rain

There's nothin' here but a shadow, nothin' here

Now you know

Now you know

Now you know

Now you know

There's nothin' here but the shadow of all that I know



I spit, I spit in the eye

I tear, tear out my heart

And I scatter the bits

I stay unseen by the light

I stay untold by the truth

I am sold by a lie

By this I am able in all of my travels

To make these memories quit

But tonight I clearly recall every little bit



I can chew like a cannibal

I can yell like a cat

I've even had you believin' that I really, really like it like that

But there was never a moment, not a moment

Now you know

Now you know

Now you know

Now you know

You ever got within a hundred million miles of my soul



I spit, I spit in the eye

I tear, tear out my heart

And I scatter the bits

I stay unseen by the light

I stay untold by the truth

I am sold by a lie

By this I am able in all of my travels

To make these memories quit

But tonight I clearly recall every little bit



You left open the window to the morning

And the winter walked in

Reality fired her wooden bullet

Splintered under our skin

They say I'm walking on freedom, this is freedom

Now I know

Now I know

Now I know

Now I know

I still don't blame you for leaving, baby

It's cold living with ghosts



I spit, I spit in the eye

I tear, tear out my heart

And I scatter the bits

I stay unseen by the light

I stay untold by the truth

I am sold by a lie

By this I am able in all of my travels

To make these memories quit

But tonight I clearly recall every little bit
