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 lifetime's damage It didn't hide a lifetime's fears
Against your better judgement You put your whole self up for sale The horror show when you were young We couldn't wait to hear about it
But even whores Don't kiss with tongues Nonetheless I do believe You cry real tears
Real tears for sale Real tears for sale Real tears for sale Real tears for sale
The wrong side of a lifetime's drinking It's where it seems I'm coming from I took my demons by the hand Bent them, twisted them Until they scanned and rhymed
And I took your love And all the hurt inside Laid it out on the market stall Agony at a knockdown price Reduced to clear is what I cry
The wrong side of a lifetime's wishful thinking Dragged me here to pills and ale Come and listen Come and listen to my tale Come and get it
Real tears for sale 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 All the rage All the rage
