Turtle Doves
Her mother said she's not allowed
To put his fingers in her mouth
But she did
She was unhappy twenty years
He dried her spit and drained her tears
He promised he'd never leave
And when he said "I love you girl"
He grabbed her wrists and pulled her hair
And said she's one of a kind
And then he used her broken heart
To cut her in her deepest parts
And claimed "Your last breath is mine"
Girls that age should not talk to boys
And mothers are always right
Beneath a wall of tender pillows
There lies the sharpest knife
He wrote his father all is well
He can't afford to call from hell
And the operators in French
He bought her rings with plastic pearls
Expensive rooms in cheap motels
But, she never really asked for much
They were together for a month
She always said she wants to dance
He left the room with trembling hands
He couldn't bare to see her eyes
They showed reflections of a child
That just became a man
Girls that age should not talk to boys
And mothers are always right
Beneath a wall of tender pillows
There lies the sharpest knife
To put his fingers in her mouth
But she did
She was unhappy twenty years
He dried her spit and drained her tears
He promised he'd never leave
And when he said "I love you girl"
He grabbed her wrists and pulled her hair
And said she's one of a kind
And then he used her broken heart
To cut her in her deepest parts
And claimed "Your last breath is mine"
Girls that age should not talk to boys
And mothers are always right
Beneath a wall of tender pillows
There lies the sharpest knife
He wrote his father all is well
He can't afford to call from hell
And the operators in French
He bought her rings with plastic pearls
Expensive rooms in cheap motels
But, she never really asked for much
They were together for a month
She always said she wants to dance
He left the room with trembling hands
He couldn't bare to see her eyes
They showed reflections of a child
That just became a man
Girls that age should not talk to boys
And mothers are always right
Beneath a wall of tender pillows
There lies the sharpest knife
