The Mary Getaway

"I'm sure to find true love under angel wings,"
assured and locked so tight I know she's whispering.
Alone and savoring life alone tonight
she's coming out to greet a world so wont of light.
Her first time exposed to the games and bitter ends.
Her last time to feel clean, in broken english she says,

"I lost everything to one boy who says he was mine,
he said he'd hold me forever."
Now she's sitting on my floor,
pulling out her hair to ease
that she's not sleeping again.

This cotton down it feels so much more like home.
the memories creep in as she closes both her eyes.
She's walking out into the night for the first time,
completely unprepared for the thousandth time.

"I lost everything to one boy who says he was mine,
he said he'd hold me forever."
Now she's sitting on my floor,
pulling out her hair to ease
that she's not sleeping again.

The first time that I saw those eyes
was the first time that I came undone,
oh Mary look what you've done to me.
oh Mary look what you've done.
The first time that I saw those eyes
was the first time I came undone,
oh Mary look what you've done to me.
oh Mary look what you've done.

She says, "I lost everything to one boy who says he was mine,
he said he'd hold me forever."
she's sitting on my floor,
pulling out her hair to ease
that she's not sleeping again.

I can't forget this night; another left, another right.
How did I ever get away, the door was locked the key unmade.
Out for the last time life ends here,
there is no next time gas is full; a vehicle that ends all fear.
