Fell asleep at 23
Trouble came and trouble stayed
Took up with a split-lipped kid
Who read Genet but fell away
And we can take two like we used to
And you can hit me if you think it'll help
But it's impossible to see you
When it's impossible to tell
If I love you
When you treat me like you do
And I know you're impossible
Say I'm impossible too
I've forgotten the names of the pale-faced saints
Hanging on your bedroom wall
But I remember the blue of your homemade tattoo
Said "all apart and no fall"
Now I'm checking myself in the passenger mirror
And it's clear that I'm not a kid
But I still want to dance and I still want to fight
And I still wear your scarf and you still pull it tight
Cause I love you
When you treat me like you do
And I know you're impossible
Say I'm impossible too
I try so hard to be like you, you just laugh and send me away
When I think I'll never see you again, you come and stay
I know it makes no difference crying, though I do
When I know you're impossible
Say I'm impossible too
(Impossible)
(Impossible)
Impossible too
(Impossible)
Impossible too
(Impossible)
