Dead Blonde Girlfriend – 17(Epilogue) lyrics

Album: Pretty as a Picture

Sometimes I seem to get in my own way
And I’ve tried to kill myself every other day
Trapped up in the garden not enough of son to grow
Emotions swing like the changing winds and where do they want to go

I’ve pulled the shortest straw I got more than I Bargained for have
Everything I have is all that I own
What’s yours becomes mine and it wasn’t pretty all the time
A couple of years later, Couple of dreams later and everything feels fine

(Chorus)
People come and go and even when they’re gone
My memories takes me away and drags them along
Heaven please help me with all the hell within
It’s hard to be an angel when the devil comes walking in

What’s out to get me is still out to get me
You know it too cause you know it’s true
Darling my patience is sorta running thin
I haven’t heard from you in a while I guess you’re in love again

If you ask me to go then I’ll say goodbye
Tempted me with a kiss you still kill me with your eyes
A promise ain’t a promise if you can’t be honest
You know the games I’ve played and you see the life I’ve changed

(Chorus)
People come and go and even when they’re gone
My memoir takes me away and drags them along
Heaven please help me with all the hell within
It’s hard to be an angel when the devil comes walking in

(Bridge)
My hearts been broke and it’s down by the side of the road
Tire tracks still fresh from the falling snow
Those songs written about you really aren’t about you
You ‘ve been written off along time ago
I’m running with the sidewalkers and dreaming with the life timers
What could never be is on the faces of outsiders
I know how far to go before going too far
And every where I go there you are

(Chorus)
People come and go and even when they’re gone
My memoir takes me away and drags them along
Heaven please help me with all the hell within
It’s hard to be an angel when the devil comes walking in

So dream of me what I am and what I am not
Cause everything I seen to have seem more than a lot
I fight to see daybreak and I keeping hoping for better days
Count the hours count the ways rushing towards my fate

(Chorus)
People come and go and even when they’re gone
My memories takes me away and drags them along
Heaven please help me with all the hell within
It’s hard to be an angel when the devil comes walking in
