[ti:gillian was a horse]
[ar:Damien Jurado]
[00:07.94] It's midnight and I give up
[00:11.42] I'm tired of lying for you
[00:15.75] I will not hold your hands and pretend I'm your lover
[00:23.22] You must admit the turn offs
[00:26.91] Have all been less than grand
[00:30.64] There's no more police escorts or the high school welcome bands
[00:38.92] I'm no lie detector
[00:42.20] He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows
[00:46.69] what should be known to all the authors
[00:58.39] Now they've put away the kissing booths
[01:02.87] The chapstick gossip's truth
[01:06.61] The only donkey they'll be riding,boy,is the one wearing your shoes
[01:13.41] Now they've heard it through the walls of telephone operators
[01:21.69] and I found out from someone else,he said he was your brother
[01:29.61] I'm no lie detector
[01:32.88] He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows
[01:37.42] What should be known to all the authors
[01:49.43] I don't care if I'm the only one who's not payin
[01:57.65] cause honey I am done staying up all night waiting
[02:13.53] Now we're all tying the ribbons of worry to your tree
[02:21.80] your passing will make the headlines but sadly no one will read
[02:28.35] Just how the town's hopeless romantic had his heart on his sleeve
[02:36.87] died alone in the carpark of a local library
[02:44.79] I'm no lie detector
[02:48.07] He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows
[02:52.50] What should be known to all the authors
