my tears ricochet
the wives of eddie sollet
{ALL}
we gather here, we line up
weepin' in a sunlit room
{AVA LUNILET}
and if I'm on fire
you'll be made of ashes too
{JUNIPER MONET}
even on my worst day
did I deserve, babe, all the hell you gave me?
{ANNA TALLIO}
cause I loved you
I swear I loved you till my dying day
{LARA WOODEN}
I didn't have it in myself to go with grace
{NADIA WILLIBI}
and you're the hero flying around saving face
{AVA LUNILET}
and if I'm dead to you, why are you at the wake?
cursing my name, wishing I stayed
look at how my tears ricochet
{NADIA WILLIBI}
we gather stones never knowing what they'll mean
{LARA WOODEN}
some to throw, some to make a diamond ring
{JUNIPER MONET}
you know I didn't want to have to haunt you
but what a ghostly scene
{NADIA WILLIBI}
you wear the same jewels that I gave you
as you buried me
{ANNA TALLIO}
I didn't have it in myself to go with grace
{ALL}
cause when I'd fight, you use to tell me I was brave
{JUNIPER MONET}
and if I'm dead to you why are you at the wake?
cursing my name, wishing I stayed
look at how my tears ricochet
{ALL}
and I can go anywhere I want
anywhere I want
just not home
{ANNA TALLIO}
and you can aim for my heart, go for blood
{JUNIPER MONET}
but you would still miss me in your bones
{NADIA WILLIBI}
and I still talk to you
(when I'm screaming at the sky)
{AVA LUNILET}
and when you can't sleep at night
(you hear my stolen lullabies)
{JUNIPER MONET}
I didn't have it in myself to go with grace
{LARA WOODEN}
and so the battleships will sink beneath the waves
{AVA LUNILET}
you had to kill me but it killed you just the same
{NADIA WILLIBI}
cursing my named, wishing I stayed
{ANNA TALLIO}
look at how my tears ricochet
{ALL}
and you're tossing out blame, drunk on this pain
crossing out the good years
and you're cursing my name, wishing I stayed
look at how my tears ricochet
