E7 Broken heart, a flask of gin Am Tattooed with a safety pin E Teeth all stained with nicotine Am Running nylons, shattered dream E7 Super crusty holy terror E Wild eyes and black mascara E Broken heart a flask of gin Am Tattooed with a safety pin E7 Teeth all stained with nicotine Am Running nylons shattered dream E Super crusty holy terror Am Wild eyes and black mascara
