Okkervil River - Lady Liberty [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
You can wash out your lying eyes
In that bathroom down the hall
I guess I should not be surprised
I guess I did not know you at all

But I can picture you inside some stranger's house
Inside some stranger's bed
You are trying to seem mysterious
The covers pulled over your head

[Chorus]
It is all right, lady liberty
It is just too bad you Could not do the same for me

[Verse 2]
You say you have been used, you have been betrayed
Yeah, and that old bed's been newly made
You just stick around awhile with me
Until you are strong enough to leave

Because I can picture you the first time
You decide to spend the night
You wonder if you should give me a call
And ask me if It is all right

[Chorus]
Yeah, It is all right, lady liberty
It is just too bad you Could not do the same for me

[Verse 3]
Do not call me or send me any more letters, baby
I just cannot stand to see your hand writing things that you do not mean
I waited, our faded love growing even more faded
The shades were down, I faced the wall, and I could hear you breathing

I tried to bring us back to life
I gave my heart so many times
And was it worth it after all?
There is a bathroom down the hall

[Outro]
There is a bathroom down the hall
There is a bathroom down the hall
And I guess I did not know you at all
I guess I did not know you at all

Lady liberty, liberty, liberty
Maybe It is time to leave
