THE WORKING TITLE - THE MARY GETAWAY lyrics

I'm sure to find true love under angel wings

assured and locked so tight

I know she's whispering

Alone and savoring

life alone tonight

she's coming out to greet

a world so won't of light.

Her first time exposed to

the games and bitter ends

Her last time to feel clean

and in broken english, she says,

“I lost everything to one boy who said he was mine,

said he'd hold me forever.”

She's sitting on my floor and pulling out her hair to ease

that she's not sleeping again.

This cotton down it feels so much more like home

the memories creep in

she closes both her eyes

She's walking out into

the night for the first time,

completely unprepared for the thousandth time.

“I lost everything to one boy who said he was mine,

said he'd hold me forever.”

She's sitting on my floor and pulling out her hair to ease

that she's not sleeping again.

The first time that I saw those eyes

was the first time that I came undone,

oh Mary look what you've done to me.

oh Mary look what you've done

The first time that I saw those eyes

was the first time that I came undone,

oh Mary look what you've done to me.

oh Mary look what you've done!

She says,

“I lost everything to one boy who said he was mine,

said he'd hold me forever.”

She's sitting on my floor and pulling out her hair to ease

that she's not sleeping again.

I can't forget this night

another left, another right.

How did I ever get away,

the door was locked

the key unmade.

Out for the last time life ends here,

there is no next time

gas is full;

a vehicle that ends all fear
