Missy |
Missy got off the bus one day |
In a crowded depot, downtown LA |
She looked around as if to say |
«I'm home. |
But, I’m home |
I’ll find someone to love, and someplace to drink |
And some time when I can just sit and think |
And I don’t mind if I catch the stink of these drones |
Lord, of these drones |
Just as long as I’m never alone.» |
She had eyes as big as porcelain plates |
And skin as thin as paper drapes |
And she loved the Lord the way as apostate loves songs |
And she’d sing to him before she went to sleep |
«I pray to you my soul to keep |
You’re a shepherd, then I’ll be your sheep until dawn |
Oh, until dawn |
Well, I’d follow you even if it was wrong.» |
I met her one night at the coffee shop |
A face so bright my heart just stopped |
«Hello, my dear, I fear I’m not what I seem |
I’m not what I seem |
I should’ve become a better man |
I should be more deserving than |
The beggar, thief, and courtesan I’ve been |
Oh, that I’ve been |
Well, I swear I lied, I curse all of my dreams |
But I swear there’s still some good in me |
And I think if you stuck around you’d see |
All the honest attempts at integrity; |
I was had |
Maybe if you helped me, I’d get it right |
Well, I’d stay awake almost every night |
Staring at the ceiling wondering why I feel so bad |
Why I feel so bad |
Oh, I swear, I swear, I swear I’ll never get sad |
