The Fair Maiden Cries Her Part
Sitting here, love’s far way
I’m tired of yesterday
Well I have drunk all of your wine
Now I’m standing on your time
No need to wash up a crime
Love’s falling fast asleep
Shame, it can’t stay on its feet
Mary’s always been alone
The axiom of sticks and stones
Falls down by my side
With the sun shining down the night
Falsehood on its side
Is such a tasteless sight
Mary runs for the hills
Smiles at a standstill
The kids come running
Locked in warning, not out of fear
I don’t want her back she can stay dear
The world came, time’s spent
I’m leaving you out of common sense
