tinseltown pony (Lyric) by herbgirlofbirkenau
In my best dress
Iâm ready to confess...
Iâve given up on the rain
Iâve given up on the pain
all was lost and nothing gained
now I need someone to keep me sane.
There is a certain vanity
that lies in our discourse
I gave up everything I had
lines of cold remorse
and now itâs too late to go back
time runs against time
and I can no longer lay claims
on what I think should rightfully be mine.
luck has all but runaway
fate glares at me saying
ânot today, not this way.â
And all I want is to sink my teeth in tight
all I want is just a little bite...
Theyâre launching rockets into space
the dealer never dealt an ace...
Lying face down in disgrace
I need another time and place..
Too much haste...
Too much haste...
Realizations come too late
you know itâs right
âcause you can pinpoint it in his face
but you can never find the words to say
because you know that
today is not the day
today is not the day.
So you clench your teeth
give a tight lipped smile
while inside youâre screaming
all the while
and the pain of all that could have been
rises sourly, blushes the skin
there is no time to begin...
There is no time to begin...
All was lost, all a waste
on feelings felt that could not be erased
I hold the paper
and you the glue
letâs piece it together
letâs make this true
letâs fight it -
times three -
apathy
look at my eyes if you canât see
all the regret that lives within me
if you name the time
if you name the place
Iâll disclose to you
my true being
my true face
and if you are scared by what you see-
all the flightiness inside of me
all the battles where I have been
all the bruises on my skin
donât look away
I need you to stay -
...I want you to say
why you lied
why part of you died
yes - itâs true
...I donât know you
but I do.
and I see
all that we could be
you and me
you and me.
If only you could step away
from all your playtime pretension
and just be
who you were,
who you really are...
To me.
