Poor Girl

You sat at home, the windows tinted black

It hits you hard and you cried so long

Life turned and wandered, never to come back again

Takes what she gives, you don't feel sorry for her

When you fell out of the Starlight Inn

You were too hurt to walk, too bad to begin

I looked at the sign but I couldnt feel sad for you

Takes what she gives, you don't cry when you kiss her

Poor little girl ran away from home

I try to explain why she won't say a thing

Sad, sad thing, I'm so far away now

How can I say why she won't talk at all

She holds the deck of cards, she wants to be alone

I'll be very ill and I tried waking up, now I want to be alone

When you ran out of Pete's Hotel you didn't look so good

And you didn't feel so well, hold me tight, but I couldn't get it right

Takes what she gives you

Poor little girl

She holds a deck of cards, she wants to be alone

She still drinks in the dark, the radio is left on late

She saw a madman fight and break it all

'Cause he hated himself and she felt better off

'Cause she was only drunk
