That's When It Hit Me - Ezra Furman

That’s when it hit me and shattered my collar bone

I was in love with your world and the way you shoved it down my throat

I was bleeding just a little from the cut near my eyebrow

I wanted to tell ya that I loved you but I just couldn’t figure out how

That’s when it hit me

That’s when it hit me: right now

My mouth fell open at the sight of a violent beauty

I was drooling sweet liquid on the carpet when you cut right through me

My eyes were black when you threw me against the wooden door

I was head over heels, I thought I couldn’t take any more

Oh but that’s when it hit me

That’s when it hit me once more

And I was bleeding in the bed sheets, when we said good night

And I was touching a black and yellow bruise on my thigh

I was running on empty, the big bad sun started to rise

Well, that’s when it hit

That’s when it hit me, aye aye

I think it’s clear, oh darling

That it hurts to split open my

Deep deep sleep at 2:30 in the morning

But you broke into my heart

And you gave me no warning

You’re a heart attack

And I’m a dead man walking

When you went to sleep

I stayed up starin' at the ceiling

And I want the real thing

With no sugar coating

And no fine print

Just a real wild feeling

And I’m hittin' the floor

I’m rockin' and a reelin' for you

For you

That’s when it hit me

That’s when it hit me straight and true

That’s when it hit me

Oh, it hit me straight and true
