Waitress has a look upon her face that says shes torn
She smokes cheap menthol cigarettes, wears scars of Forgone wars
Away cross the enemy lines in this passenger seat.
Shell make it home in time to see you rise
She will just selfishly sit there and wait for you to save her life

She holds her steering wheel and drives us round this place
I know that shes not saying much cause silence makes brave as we,
Listen to radio news about how Englands lost its faith
Shell spend her days avoiding preachers on the street shes that
Unholy radical, nameless body breached in this,
Unfriendly action of avoiding things that she dont wanna know
Shell make it home in time to see you rise
She will just selfishly sit there and wait for you to save her life
Your eyes are dead, youre body just divides home, so cold
And you wait, youre so much colder and this is the evening weve spent
And Ill never know what she meant
But bodies of water and old cold beds and this is the evening
Shell spend her days avoiding preachers on the street shes that
Unholy radical, nameless body breached in this,
Unfriendly action of avoiding things that she dont wanna know
