No Love, Just Lies
No love, just lies
I saw my mother in your eyes
I saw my future in your arms
No help, just harm
Not warm, just full
Say you love me, that's just cruel
Say you're leaving, I don't mind
You weren't much but you were mine
Some things are best left unsaid
But I'll whisper them to you while you get undressed
Tell me stories, get to know me
To feel witnessed, to feel less lonely
But there's no love, it's just lies
Getting drunk under that grey sky
Stumbling home to an empty mattress
And they buried you in that same black dress
I often wonder what you would think of me now
I'm eating and my arms are clean so I think that you'd be proud
I wish you'd tell me just what we're waiting for
But if it's coming in the morning I would still sleep on your floor
No love, just lies
I told you different, I'm not unkind
You said your new boy gives you pet names and makes you breakfast in bed
Well, angel, baby, doll-face, how did he make you forget?
I wonder
Thoughts of you hold me til summer
I don't know what to say about this world we're in
All these fascists with their white collars, red meat, and heroin
I can't tell you what we're living for but it must be worth our time
Cause there's a bridge behind your mother's house, and suicide is an un-punishable crime
No more, no more
They all want a girl who's easy but no one loves a whore
Turn my sadness into profit
Kill me young, make my corpse dance, and then proclaim I've lost it
I often wonder what you would think of me now
I'm eating and my arms are clean so I think that you'd be proud
I wish you'd tell me just what we're waiting for
But if it's coming in the morning I would still sleep on your floor
I saw my mother in your eyes
I saw my future in your arms
No help, just harm
Not warm, just full
Say you love me, that's just cruel
Say you're leaving, I don't mind
You weren't much but you were mine
Some things are best left unsaid
But I'll whisper them to you while you get undressed
Tell me stories, get to know me
To feel witnessed, to feel less lonely
But there's no love, it's just lies
Getting drunk under that grey sky
Stumbling home to an empty mattress
And they buried you in that same black dress
I often wonder what you would think of me now
I'm eating and my arms are clean so I think that you'd be proud
I wish you'd tell me just what we're waiting for
But if it's coming in the morning I would still sleep on your floor
No love, just lies
I told you different, I'm not unkind
You said your new boy gives you pet names and makes you breakfast in bed
Well, angel, baby, doll-face, how did he make you forget?
I wonder
Thoughts of you hold me til summer
I don't know what to say about this world we're in

Cause there's a bridge behind your mother's house, and suicide is an un-punishable crime
No more, no more

Turn my sadness into profit
Kill me young, make my corpse dance, and then proclaim I've lost it
I often wonder what you would think of me now
I'm eating and my arms are clean so I think that you'd be proud
I wish you'd tell me just what we're waiting for
But if it's coming in the morning I would still sleep on your floor
