Pretty Gardens

Eddie Stevens, Róisín Murphy

[Verse 1]
Here I am, as you made me, telling barefaced lies
Look at me all naked, I let my pretty garden grow wild
It's free to look upon me, and see the tears I cried
This is me with no makeup, falling like a fool out of pride

[Interlude]
You need to like an asymmetric body
You're smiling at my crooked smile
I never thought that I was perfect in the fucking first place
I'm alright in your eyes

[Verse 2]
I just want you to look upon me, and see the good inside
What do you see when you look upon me, telling barefaced lies?
Naturally I'm not a blondie, not every hair is dyed

[Chorus 1]
All stripped back
Bare, clean scrubbed face
Sliding out of place
You made me feel
I could be an honest lass
Just like in the past

[Verse 3]
Any lingering doubt 'bout your love is just irrelevant now
At the worst of my worst you didn't leave me, are all my imperfections allowed?
You're a fool to always forgive me, and see the good inside
It's cruel to make you feel guilty, when I let my pretty garden grow wild

[Chorus 2]
Told barefaced lies
Tried to hide behind the dishonesties
Made a mockery when my life is blessed
With a lazy eye and a crooked smile
These things now are superfluous, would be perfectless
Looking straight at me, there's no symmetry
Even getting dressed
There's a lazy eye
So I'll be brave, I'll stay here to face myself
Looking straight at me, there's no symmetry
There's a lazy eye, and a crooked smile
No artifice to this, just an honest kiss
Looking straight at me, there's no symmetry
There's a lazy eye, and a crooked smile
