Cheerleader [2023 Remaster]
cheerleader
six months of Winter
with your junkie drawlin’ borin’ bastard friends
sure could use a pick-me-up tonight
sure could use
someone to pick me up and carry me
i’m useless
well i’m the only cheerleader you’ve got
o lucky girl
if you can’t go on, go on
i’ll help you up
look around at what you’ve got
not what you’ve lost
i’ll help you bury your dead
your head is full of night
i’ll help you bury your dead
o lucky girl
i’m the only cheerleader you’ve got
i’m the only cheerleader you know
she tears the matches from the book
one by one
her story tells itself, her hair’s undone
changed address too many times,
too many towns
i swear that disappointment
can always track you down
your self-pity song and dance
all the chances in the world you’ve blown
your self-pity song and dance
you inhabit a world of blown chances
six months of Winter in your eyes
six months of Winter in your eyes
six months of Winter in your eyes
in your bones
you had no feeling,
tell me how to keep it
who can beat the thing that beats them?
there’s always something creeping out from your past
i’m the only cheerleader you’ve got
changed address too many times
i’m the only cheerleader
look around at what you’ve got
not what you’ve lost
i’ll help you bury your dead
if your head is full of night
six months of Winter
six months of Winter
I could be
I could be
I could be your cheerleader tonight
I could be
I could be
I could be six months of Winter
your cheerleader tonight
I could be
I could be
I could be your cheerleader tonight
I could be six months of Winter
