Over the Rhine - Everyman's Daughter

Текст песни

Look inside for the elusive goldmine
Broken glass and a little cheap wine
Is all that I can find
And bundles of contradictions
My heart full of loose connections
Hands across my eyes
I cannot disguise
I’m everyman’s daughter
Everyman’s daughter
It’s always the same old question
Who am I and whose invention?
This armour’s full of dust
There’s so much of us in each other
If I hate you you’re my best reminder
Of all I wish I was
I hate you just because
I’m everyman’s daughter
Everyman’s daughter
Everyman’s daughter
Everyman’s daughter
Who do you think that I am?
It don’t matter long as we can understand
I am hurting someone
I am hurting someone just like, just like
I am hurting someone
I am hurting someone just like, just like you
Insulting the wounds of others
My sisters, my brothers
My vision’s way too good
I carry the inward aching
Like you, I too am naked
I don’t look that good
But this is flesh and blood
I’m everyman’s daughter
Everyman’s daughter
Look at all the blood we’ve spilt
I can’t deal with all this fundamental guilt
I am hurting someone
I am hurting someone just like, just like
I am hurting someone
I am hurting someone just like, just like you
I am. I am. I am everyman’s daughter
I am. I am. I am everyman’s daughter
I am. I am. I am everyman’s daughter
I am. I am. I am everyman’s daughter
Everyman’s daughter
Everyman’s daughter
Everyman’s daughter
