Evelyn McHale Lyrics

when you got crippled by that car
when we was martyred monthly and scarred by the way that we are
we nearly broke your mothers heart
stay close and pray she never knows
how we both fell apart

sure we were sinners from the start
spellbound still safe as houses
now pending me down for your hearts
and we never meant you any harm
and still though we've thought not to be caught
how the thought made me hard

and sure we look loathesome from afar
hateful and hollow smugging smart
well dont we look the part
sweetheart remembered for your art
train those charms toward the charts and we'll be stars
just the way that we are


and how do we simply carry on?
sweet mess with risk save tacky one tryst on that lawn
how long must we be strung on?
and my god i hope that you will be done undone by the sum of ones song

so you got crippled by that car
no longer martyred monthly though scarred by the way that we are
sweetheart those sickest insane thoughts
take those drones by the stones and we'll be stars
just the way that we are
