Missy lyrics
Missy got off the bus one day
In a crowd of people, downtown LA
She looked around as if to say, I m home
But I m home

I find someone to love
And some place to drink
And some time when I can just sit and think
And I don t mind if I catch the stink of these drones
Lord, of these drones
Just as long as I m never alone

She had eyes as big as porcelain plates
And skin as thin as paper drapes
And she loved the Lord the way an apostate loves songs
And she d sing to him before she went to sleep:
"I pray to you, my soul to keep
You re shepherd, then I ll be your sheep
Until dawn, oh until dawn
Well I d follow you, even if it was wrong"

I met her one night at the coffee shop
Her face so bright, my heart just stopped
Hello my dear, I fear I m not what I seem
Not what I seem
I should ve become a better man
I should be more deserving than
The beggar, thief and courtesan I ve been
Oh, that I ve been
But I swear, I lie, I curse all of my dreams

But I swear there s still some good in me
And I think if you stuck around you d see
All the honest attempts at integrity, I was had
Maybe if you helped me, I d get it right
I lie awake every night, staring at the ceiling
Wondering why I feel so bad, why I feel so bad
But I swear, I swear, I swear I ll never get sad
