Lady Liberty Lyrics

You can wash out your lying eyes
In the bathroom down the hall
I guess I shouldn't be surprised
I guess I didn't know you at all
I can picture you inside some stranger's house,
Inside some stranger's bed
You're trying to seem mysterious,
The covers pulled over your head.
It's all right, 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 awhile with me
Until you're strong enough to leave
And 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 all right
Yeah, it's all right, 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.
