Parenthetical Girls - The Pornographer [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Lost love of mine
Who gentlemen objectify
I've seen the price and Christ, I sympathize
But then what was I
Those charmless arms you slept inside
Who prays one day we make this same mistake twice
Mistake twice

[Chorus]
I've learned all my lines and marked all the cues
So boy, stand aside before I've thought this through

I've been over this a thousand times
The gist of this I've thrice surmised
But hard as I try i'm helpless to describe
Cause they've stood idle
With what's left of these looks of mine
Tone-deaf and dumb my tongue to occupy
Occupy

[Chorus]

So loves come to town, now
You know what I'm obliged to do
Cool to be kind but I'm still fond of you
Because you're just like us
Who tarnish everything we touch
Hands out in front with blood up to the cuffs
And I've seen enough

[Chorus]
