Lady Liberty

Lyrics

You can wash out your lying eyes
 In that bathroom down the hall
 I guess I shouldn't be surprised
 Guess I didn't know you at all
 But I can picture you inside some stranger's house
 Inside some stranger's bed
 You're tryna seem mysterious
 The covers pulled over your head
 It's alright, Lady Liberty
 It's just too bad you couldn't do the same for me
 You say you've been used, you've been betrayed
 Yeah, and that old bed's been newly made
 You just stick around a while with me
 Until you're strong enough to leave
 'Cause I can picture you the first time
 You decide to spend the night
 You wonder if you should give me a call
 And ask me if it's alright
 Yeah, it's alright, Lady Liberty
 It's just too bad you couldn't do the same for me
 Don't call me or send me any more letters, baby
 I just can't stand to see your hand writing things that you don't mean
 I waited, our faded love growing even more faded
 The shades were down, I faced the wall, and I could hear you breathing
 I tried to bring us back to life
 I gave my heart so many times
 And was it worth it after all?
 There is a bathroom down the hall
 There's a bathroom down the hall
 There's a bathroom down the hall
 And I guess I didn't know you at all
 I guess I didn't know you at all
 Lady Liberty, Liberty, Liberty
 Maybe it's time to leave
