about
If you don't know what this song's about, you are a very fortunate human, and I will leave you blissfully ignorant.
lyrics
So many others have come undone
For far less than the distance I've run
They fuck us over and then they turn to stone
So many pretty girls living in shadow
You say you want me to be happy so I smile
And it changes the lines on my face for a little while
But the blade cut much deeper than anyone knows
So tell the pretty girl to follow the arrow
To all the other pretty girls
I say you're beautiful.
Because of what you give,
You'll never grow old.
But they're just men and they won't understand
You cut out your heart just to hold his hand
My friend from the Valley don't talk to me no more
Can't respect a hole. Can't respect a whore.
The more I've loved, the more I've lost.
Every part he kissed went black; switched off.
Not sorry I loved you.
I told the truth.
Say goodbye, pretty girl.
Say goodbye to you.
And to all the other pretty girls,
I say you're beautiful.
Because of what you gave,
You'll never grow old.
