Never Really Mine

Never Really Mine Lyrics & Chords

lonely little governor got caught
his right hand halfway down her pants
the transvestite chuckles in her cell
everyone’s a freak in here she says

let the crazies decide whats best
your table has wounded wooden legs

do you love me now, he asked the empty wall
as he slit her throat and wept into her breast
the wide eyed kitten looks on
till the third bullet brings her down

I’m sorry honey, but I’ve been a real fool
Nobody’s true, so why the hell would you

Buried down in airless holes
The rats return home
take your knife and stab me fast
before we’re alone
I found you on a subway car
drunk on moonshine
I found you on that subway car
burning neon signs

the starving nymphomaniac nun
stares out into the setting sun
the wrinkles accumulate too fast
she wonders why nothing ever lasts

The river swelled on just one side
her poisoned hope lost to the tide

now you’re finally a star
we both know who you really are
Your lover’s so bitter in defeat
He’s asking for blood out on the street

He’s drawing ugly horns above your head
and hating your pictures instead

Headed past west 14th street
The trains returned home
You stabbed your arm and made a mess
before we could be whole

I found you on a subway car
Pretending to be fine
I stole you from a subway car
You were never really mine
