my lady story , my lady story

my lady story is one of annihilation
my lady story is one of breast amputation

my lady story , my lady story

i’m a hole in love
i’m a bride on fire
i’m a twisted tube
in a starve of wire

my lady story , my lady story

i’m lying the road for you
and i’ve been your slave
my womb’s an ocean full
of grief and rage

my lady story , my lady story
my lady story , my lady story

still you’re coaxing me
to come on out and live
well , i’m a crippled dog
i’ve got nothing to give

my lady story , my lady story
my lady story , my lady story

i’m so broken , babe
but i wanna see
some shining eye
some of my beauty
lostest beauty
lostest beauty
