Damien Jurado - Gillian Was A Horse lyrics

It's midnight and I give up I'm tired of lying for you I will not hold your hands and pretend I'm your lover You must admit the turnouts have all been less than grand There's no more police escorts or the high school welcome bands I'm no lie detector He's no bullsh** talker And we both know who knows What should be known to all the onlookers Now they've put away the kissing booths chapstick gossips truth The only donkey that they'll be riding boy is the one wearing your shoes Know they've heard it through the walls of telephone operators And I found out from someone else said it was your brother I'm no lie detector He's no bullsh** talker And we both know who knows What should be known to all the onlookers I don't care if I'm the only one who's not paying 'Cause honey I am done staying up all night waiting Now we're all tying the ribbons of worry to your tree Your pa**ing will make the headlines but sadly no one will read Just how the town's hopeless romantic had his heart on his sleeve Died alone in the carport of the local library I'm no lie detector He's no bullsh** talker And we both know who knows What should be known to all the onlookers I'm no lie detector He's no bullsh** talker And we both know who knows What should be known to all the onlookers
