Kristin Hersh - Milk Street Lyrics

You were good
You were kind
You were drunk all the time
But never drunk enough

As you're battered by the underside of what we swore we wanted
Bothered by the crapshoot that has put you half to sleep
A sorely needed sleep

I hang outside the door all night
Ill
bang on the door all night


You are good
You are brave
No matter what you say
But never brave enough
As you're trying
to shield your glass
Newborn from the dodgeballs
And aching for
children that you have never seen

It's still a tragedy
It's still
a tragedy
