Throwing Good After Bad (In the Canyon Haze) Songtext
von Brandi Carlile

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

I know you′re leavin' me
I know I′m not your home
You want a movie dancer
You want blood from a stone

But I'm on to you
And you will pour your heart into
Any shimmering fad
Throwin' good after bad

People get addicted to
The rush, the chase, the new
Just hopin′ that all that chaos
Will lead to somethin′ like this

I'll get over you
But you won′t be whole 'til you do
You won′t find what you had
Throwin' good after bad


And I′ll always feel a little left behind
But that lyin' wind that calls your name
Will leave you flowin' blind (leave you blind)

Are you fantasizin′?
You′re takin' us for granted
I know you′re bored
You always say I'm heavy handed

You got a beautiful mind
And the soul of a coyote
Hunger drivin′ you mad
Throwin' good after bad
Hunger drivin′ you mad
Throwin' good after bad

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

I know you loved me once
You were somethin' to prove
I was an unfinished song
You were nothin′ to lose


I′m a dandelion
And when my color suited you
You allowed me to grow
But you know, when you know (know, when you know)

And now the party's over
And you′re dancin' alone
You′ve been spinnin' ′round for hours
The band have all gone home (have all gone home)

And you're fantasizin'
You′re takin′ us for granted
I know you're bored
You always say I′m heavy handed

You got a beautiful mind
And the soul of a coyote
Hunger drivin' you mad
Throwin′ good after bad

You got a beautiful mind
And the soul of a coyote
Hunger drivin' you mad
Throwin′ good after bad

Hunger drivin' you mad (hunger drivin' you mad)
Throwin′ good after bad
Hunger drivin′ you mad (hunger drivin' you mad)
Throwin′ good after bad
Hunger drivin' you mad

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
