Lady Liberty Lyrics - Okkervil River

You can wash out your lying eyes 

In that bathroom down the hall 

I guess I shouldn't be surprised 

I guess I didn't know you at all 

But I can picture you inside some stranger's house 

Inside some stranger's bed 

You're trying to seem mysterious 

The covers pulled over your head 

It's all right, lady liberty 

It's just too bad you couldn't do the same for me 

You say you've been used, you've been betrayed 

Yeah, and that old bed's been newly made 

You just stick around awhile with me 

Until you're strong enough to leave

'Cause I can picture you the first time 

You decide to spend the night 

You wonder if you should give me a call 

And ask me if it's all right 

Yeah, it's all right, lady liberty 

It's just too bad you couldn't do the same for me 

Don't call me or send me any more letters, baby 

I just can't stand to see your hand writing things that you don't mean 

I waited, our faded love growing even more faded 

The shades were down, I faced the wall, and I could hear you breathing 

I tried to bring us back to life 

I gave my heart so many times 

And was it worth it after all? 

There is a bathroom down the hall 

Photos 

There's a bathroom down the hall 

There's a bathroom down the hall 

And I guess I didn't know you at all 

I guess I didn't know you at all 

Lady liberty, liberty, liberty 

Maybe it's time to leave
