Lost Mary - I Know You Better Lyrics

So tell me, darling girl
Your hair's messy like a whirlwind
I see tears in your eyes
And I hear the sighs in your heart
Did your father spite you
While your mother was fast asleep
Did your brother stumble out
Cold, drunk, in the empty street?

So you make me wait again
There's no sense in the things you say
Fight's on another day
But I know you better than this
I've been here time and time before
Keep on pulling back your soul, babe

So I go again
To see how you're doing
But I don't know which way is right
And which way is wrong
But I dare the worst
A suckerpunch into the face
Door's closed, babe
And you won't let me in

So you make me wait again
There's no sense in the things you say
Fight's on another day
But I know you better than this
I've been here time and time before
Keep on pulling back your soul, babe

Your lies are soft
Your skin's not that tough
And I don't believe
A single thing that comes from your pretty lips
Where'd those bruises go
Did you leave on your own?
I feel your soreness as
You pull yourself into my arms

So you make me wait again
There's no sense in the things you say
Fight's on another day
But I know you better than this
I've been here time and time before
Keep on pulling back your soul, babe

So you make me wait again
There's no sense in the things you say
Fight's on another day
But I know you better than this
I've been here time and time before
Keep on pulling back your soul, babe

So tell me, darling girl
Your hair's messy like a whirlwind
I see tears in your eyes
And I hear the sighs in your heart
