Real Tears For Sale

Such a pretty girl
The anger didn’t hide it
You shaved your head pulled a face
Dressed yourself up without grace

It didn’t hide a life times damage
It didn’t hide a life times fear

Against your better judgement
You put your whole self up for sale
And the horror show when you where young
We couldn’t wait to hear about it

But even whores
Don't kiss with tongues
Never the less I do believe
You cry real tears

Real tears for sale
Real tears for sale
Real tears for sale

The wrong side of a lifetimes drinking
I took my demons by the hand
Burnt them and twisted them until
They scanned and rhymed

And I took your help
And all the hurt inside
I laid it out on a market stall
I believe at a knocked down price
Reduced to clear it’s what I cried

The wrong side of a lifetime's wishful thinking
Dragged me here to pills and ale


Real tears for sale
Real tears for sale
Real tears for sale

All the hurt
All the secrets
All the damage
All the shame
All the dirty absolutions
All the rage
