Real Tears for Sale |
Such a pretty girl |
The anger didn’t hide it |
You shaved your head, pulled a face |
Dressed yourself up without grace |
It didn’t hide a lifetime’s damage |
It didn’t hide a lifetime’s fears |
Against your better judgement |
You put your whole self up for sale |
The horror show when you were young |
We couldn’t wait to hear about it |
But even whores |
Don’t kiss with tongues |
Nonetheless I do believe |
You cry real tears |
Real tears for sale |
Real tears for sale |
Real tears for sale |
Real tears for sale |
The wrong side of a lifetime’s drinking |
It’s where it seems I’m coming from |
I took my demons by the hand |
Bent them, twisted them |
Until they scanned and rhymed |
And I took your love |
And all the hurt inside |
Laid it out on the market stall |
Agony at a knockdown price |
Reduced to clear is what I cry |
The wrong side of a lifetime’s wishful thinking |
Dragged me here to pills and ale |
Come and listen |
Come and listen to my tale |
Come and get it |
Real tears for sale |
Real tears for sale |
Real tears for sale |
Real tears for sale |
All the hurt |
All the secrets |
All the damage |
All the shame |
All the dirty absolutions |
All the rage |
All the rage |
All the rage |
