Gillian Was A Horse |
| It’s midnight and I give up I’m tired of lying for you |
| I will not hold your hands and pretend I’m your lover |
| You must admit the turnouts have all been less than grand |
| There’s no more police escorts or the high school welcome bands |
| I’m no lie detector |
| He’s no bullshit talker |
| And we both know who knows |
| What should be known to all the onlookers |
| Now they’ve put away the kissing booths chapstick gossips truth |
| The only donkey that they’ll be riding boy is the one wearing your shoes |
| Know they’ve heard it through the walls of telephone operators |
| And I found out from someone else said it was your brother |
| I’m no lie detector |
| He’s no bullshit talker |
| And we both know who knows |
| What should be known to all the onlookers |
| I don’t care if I’m the only one who’s not paying |
| 'Cause honey I am done staying up all night waiting |
| Now we’re all tying the ribbons of worry to your tree |
| Your passing will make the headlines but sadly no one will read |
| Just how the town’s hopeless romantic had his heart on his sleeve |
| Died alone in the carport of the local library |
| I’m no lie detector |
| He’s no bullshit talker |
| And we both know who knows |
| What should be known to all the onlookers |
| I’m no lie detector |
| He’s no bullshit talker |
| And we both know who knows |
| What should be known to all the onlookers |
