Be Your Own Girl

歌詞

I know you're tired of wakin' up on the floor Pushed to the edge with nothin' heavy to hold Usin' your clothes as a blanket and a bed Holdin' your hands just to lay your head. I know you don't remember ever fallin' down Who picked you up, who gathered around But you don't have to be his girl, and you don't have to be my girl, you can always be your own girl. With the sound of your feet you follow yourself to sleep Restless and ageless and lookin' for something to keep When you finally fall asleep you're awake in dreams Hangin' by the ankles in the skeleton ravine. I know you can't relax / your candle wax / you kicked the lights fell on your shoes Punched out the colors, leaving you the blues But you don't have to be his girl, you don't have to be my girl, you can always be your own girl. There's a soft melody that's ringin' in your ears Simple and slow and always brings you here. With broken crayons you've scribbled on the wall Shapes of nothing and shadow boxed them all. Your fingertips are broke, and your knees don't bend Your imagination took the worst hit and cut its skin But you don't have to be his girl, and you don't have to be my girl, you can always be your own girl. There's a soft melody that's ringin' in my ears It's the same one you could never avoid in yours And if you lay down you can hear from tongue to tails About a tattooed rhythm and drummin' by color wheel. Your rung is broken on the bottom of the rope And you can't tie another, another knot of hope And you don't have to be his girl, And you don't have to be my girl, You can always be your own girl.
