I should thank you almost
  no one could kill it off until you bled it
  but I got rid of that ghost
  'though certain habits remain imbedded
  with the shadow of a doubt
  but baby it was you who fed it
  and I don't know what else to say
  but I think you get it.
  
  I should've known
  it was coming down to this
  I should've known
  you would betray me but without the kiss
  I should've known
  the kind of set-up it is.
  
  And always isn't always
  when it's not your photograph that I've been keeping
  but you still live in those days
  when I'd stay awake just to watch you sleeping
  you delivered that blow
  but it left a mark on me that you're not seeing
  and I don't know what else you hear
  but it's not me weeping
  
  I should've known
  it was coming down to this
  I should've known
  you would betray me but without the kiss
  I should've known
  the kind of set-up it is.
  
  I should've seen the cracks in the ceiling
  and the mirror covered up with dust
  but I was busy talking on the phone
  I should've seen the obstacles but I said,
  this house was built for us
  hello
  is anybody home?
  
  I should've known
  the minute that we hit the wall
  I should've known
  the writing was upon the stall
  I should've known
  'cause Rome was starting to fall
  
  and I should thank you, almost.
