Oh pretty girls, you're too good for this
|
How you break my heart in this cold waiting room
|
Oh pretty girls, you're too good for this
|
Don't let them tell you you're nothing
|
Don't let them break your hearts too
|
|
The TV is blaring and angry
|
As if you don't know why you're here
|
Those who walk without sin are so hungry
|
Don't let the wolves in, pretty girls
|
|
Your hearts are so tried and so innocent
|
Wind your flimsy blue gowns tight around you
|
Around curves so comely and sinister
|
They blame it on you pretty girls
|
|
Oh pretty girls, you're too good for this
|
How you break my heart in this cold waiting room
|
Oh pretty girls, you're too good for this
|
Don't let them tell you you're nothing
|
Don't let them break your hearts too
|
|
My girls, you're just like the heavens
|
Not a soul to take your hand in theirs
|
Your tears and wild constellations
|
Broad limbs and hard folding chairs
|
|
But there's millions to count you and keep you
|
And lovers that don't understand
|
Don't let them tell you you're nothing
|
'Cause you'll change the world pretty girls
|
|
Come chain yourself from my ankles
|
You'll see the world like a bird
|
Diving down low, flying up high
|
Thru all of these saccharine gutters we'll ride and I
|
