Lyrics

Spent the morning going through brochures
Found a coupon for the hardware store
Wasn't sure what to buy but they gave me options
"How about some bleach to clean your conscience"
When I was 10 I ran away from home
On my sister's communion with my nice clothes on
Walked for miles through farmland
But forgot about the mud
Struggled for hours, ended up getting stuck
And I cried and cried and cried
Till late at night, when the cops brought me back
Not a smile in sight
And my sister said "Hi" with tears in her eyes
I said: "I'm sorry I took your time to shine"
At 20 I was looking for temporary love
Somebody to soothe me, and then get rid of
Black hair, brown hair, blond hair, I didn't care
As long as I could lay my head to rest somewhere
Men are men
And I meant it when I said "I love you"
But ran again
At 31
Found a book called "The Art Of Marbling"
And it said: "Not the veins, but the layers are the hard thing"
And at 31
After years of hopelessly trying
Layer after layer
The facade is falling
"Your lies are not consistent"
"Your eyes are not convincing"
The path of most resistance
Is going in the wrong direction
But that's behind us I hope
