Lipstick

Lipstick

Lyrics – No Giants Here

The lipstick that she wore when she was 24
Broken and rattling at the back of her draw
The stockings that she tore when she was 23
Before she wished she’d never met me

Oh my lord please take me home now

Surely lost and never found now
Wipe my dirt off your brow
Forgotten for a life style
Forgotten for a while
Well I know where I belong
Yeah I know where I came from
I was always underground
Silent while making sound

For the second time I call your name
For the second time I fall

All the words that I heard that were never said
Every empty promise never met
A shrine to your regret
In case you try to forget
But still dawns another day
The night’s never quite gone away
Just far enough to hide
Near enough to?

For the second time I call your name
For the second time I fall
