Blow By Blow by Laura Marling Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't know what else to say, I think I did my best
Momma's on the phone already talking to the press
Tell them that I'm doing fine, underplay distress
I'm working out a story and there's so much to address

[Chorus 1]
Note by note
Blow by blow
Seeing it all laid out
I should have known

[Verse 2]
I don't know what else to say, I think I'm doing fine
Tryna figure out what I will do with all my time
Tell them anything you like, I'll own up to what's mine
Knowing thunder gives away what lightning tries to hide

[Bridge]
No one was prepared
But we all performed
Like we'd done it all before
[Chorus 2]
Note by note
Bruise by bruise
Sometimes the hardest thing to learn
Is what you get from what you lose

[Outro]
I feel a fool, so do you
For believing it could work out
Like some things do
