Since I was asked to write down the lyrics to LP’s song ‘Damage is Done’, I decided to write a bit more info about a song itself as well. We all know that there are many songs written by LP that sadly never made it into any record. The “Damage is Done” is one of such songs. I believe it was written around 2007-2008, when LP was working on the record that was to be published in January 2009. This never happened, due to many reasons, however some songs must have been recorded in the studio. This song was featured in MTV’s The Hills (reality television series) in S5, E16 · ‘Sorry Boo, Strike Two’, which aired 27 Oct 2009. Song was also released on iTunes (but don’t think it’s still available there). You can listen to the song via YouTube, as it was uploaded by LP’s fan. For video, click here.
Transcript of lyrics below. I believe I got them right in about 95%, but if you think there’s an error please let me know.
LP – Damage is done
I’m wise to the way you disguise all the lies you tell everyone but me
You’re dead wrong if you think I don’t know
How well you play this game by now
Wish (that) we could go back to the day, when I’ve trusted everything you say
you don’t even know it and you don’t see it
The damage is done, you turned it around, you never look back to say goodbye
it’s not enough to say it with love, I wanna believe but it’s a part,
when nothing is right, nothing is right, nothing is right
I’m sorry to tell you, everything’s wrong, the damage is done
Your story is perfect or so you think,
when I ask where you were, you don’t even blink
Always late, always something, I’m not even listening
it’s clear you get around,
text me while you’re talking to her, kiss (her) while you’re thinking of somebody else
you don’t even know it and you don’t see it
The damage is done, you turned it around, you never look back to say goodbye
it’s not enough to say it with love, I wanna believe but it’s a part,
when nothing is right, nothing is right, nothing is right
I’m sorry to tell you, everything’s wrong, the damage is done
You can deny, all you want, even you believe it
You can deny, all you want, but it’s not a secret
you don’t even know it
The damage is done, you turned it around, you never look back to say goodbye
it’s not enough to say it with love , I wanna believe but it’s a part,
when nothing is right, nothing is right, nothing is right
I’m sorry to tell you, everything’s wrong, the damage is done
everything’s wrong, the damage is done
Anna from Poland. I have been a blogger for a long time, but more in a royal field. Since 'meeting' LP through her music and as a person, a lot has changed. If I'm not working on my blog, I work as a teacher. I love to travel, read & dance. I sing & play uke when no one listens. Music was always a big part of my life.
