molly ofgeography – i knew a woman (demo version) lyrics
[verse 1]
i only smoke when i am homesick
so that my hands smell like her hands
a dusty, bitter, southern perfume
it clings all to my skin just like the sand
[pre+chorus]
oh, the heart’s a warehouse where we store impossible things
but time rises on ripsand not on wings
[chorus]
we were here and we’ll be gone
it’s such an old and sad song
tell me the truth with lipstick on
i got so many things wrong
[verse 2]
all my flaws and my devotions
packed all up in boxes on the street
i’ve loved and i have lost and i have wanted
and i’ve treated bitter pills like they were sweet
[pre+chorus]
oh, honesty is easy if you don’t look it in the eyes
time’s gone where i can’t go but that’s alright
[chorus]
we were here and we’ll be gone
it’s such an old and sad song
tell me the truth with lipstick on
i got so many things wrong
[bridge]
want is a wasting disease
what you get is not always what you need
safety in sorrow by degrees
you ask for grace, but only from your knees
[chorus]
we were here and we’ll be gone
it’s such an old and sad song
tell me the truth with lipstick on
i got so many things wrong
[verse 3]
i knew a woman with a tardis
who lived long and slow in her backyard
she said she knew it would outlive her
said she’d seen the end right from the start
[pre+chorus]
oh, to love a thing that you know you’ll leave behind
but darling you have so much time
[chorus]
we were here and we’ll be gone
it’s such an old and sad song
tell me the truth with lipstick on
i got so many things wrong
