Kitt F-C - Afterwards, No Nonsense Avails Lyrics

With the pockets of her jacket lined with sadness and cigarettes
"I've lived another sleepless night" she says
Change is made, but never quite so immediate as to wash away the ruins in her head
You think there's something she still ain't thought to implement
But she's two steps ahead of the curb, I fear
Waves of misery flash upon another innocent
She disappears into a puddle of her own tears

Lonely girl, it takes more than love, she knows
Could this brave world have the guts?
By and by, they let their intentions show
And so she lets her melancholy flowers grow

Like a hundred-mile Ferrari comes the whiplash of city life
Blows another fuse in another way
It's like a blackout, but without any candlelight
Watching as her senses go astray
Just another pair of eyes in a raging sea of faces facing worse adversity
I guess that's what she tells to herself at the end of every day, and I tell to myself too

Lonely girl, it takes more than love, she knows
Could this brave world have the guts?
By and by, they let their intentions show
And so she lets her melancholy flowers grow

Trust in this season for a comeback
There's more to those eyes than meets the rain
Everyone in this forsaken country has grown
The butcher, the banker, and the family Stone

Lonely girl, it takes more than love, she knows
Could anyone have the guts?
By and by, they let their intentions show
And so she lets her melancholy flowers grow
