Show pony

I'll begin at the beginning
You met in New York City
He was sitting like a prince
On the stairs of his old building
And he kissed you, you were finished
Two months in a minute
Married at a desk
In your sundress with a witness
Had a honeymoon in Texas
Went to Little Venice
Told him with your eyes
Now you're crying in the clinic
And we pile into the plymouth
Haircuts in the kitchen
He always fell asleep
Just before the movie finished

But you don't
Baby you're alone
Echoes in your head
Pressed into the floor
Two-dimensional
When's it gonna end?
Maybe when you're dead?
Maybe you're a fool, but he loved you...

And he loved you in a t-shirt, mmm
All the memories inside your curves
Now you're coming back to show us that girl
So roll those credits, 'cause the sequel's gonna hurt, mmm

Show pony make it burn
Smile as the knife is turned
Show pony making a return
As we make our way through the universe

Show pony making it burn
That's how revenge is served
Make it so cold that it hurts
I guess he's right that you live and learn

It's how the story goes
Ramen on your own
Waiting by the phone
Lipstick on the coat
Waiting by the door
You live in his clothes
You would make a joke
That you had none of your own

All that shit I learned from you
Kindness spilt like milk and juice
So blindsided by the truth
In some way I was sure you knew

But you don't
Baby you're alone
Echoes in your head
Pressed into the floor
Two-dimensional
When's it gonna end?
Maybe when you're dead?
Maybe you're a fool, but he loved you...

And he loved you in a t-shirt, mmm
All the memories inside your curves
Now you're coming back to show us that girl
So roll those credits, 'cause the sequel's gonna hurt, mmm

Show pony make it burn
Smile as the knife is turned
Show pony making a return
As we make our way through the universe

All those nights he left you and me
There was nothing left of you but he squeezed
All those times he did what he pleased
Boy those scars must really run deep
And all that hurt comes out in one scream
It pierced him like the paper receipt
You got that time you went for food
That first night that he saw you

Show pony make it burn
Smile as the knife is turned
Show pony making a return
As we make our way through the universe

Show pony making it burn
That's how revenge is served
Make it so cold that it hurts
I guess he's right that you live and learn
