"Ugly Mystery" lyrics

"Ugly Mystery"

Monette, Monette
I felt you suck the life from me
I won't forget your apathy was such an ugly mystery
I watched myself vanish under vanity lighting

Hope is so violent and I knew you wouldn't jump ship
Unless you saw another one coming

You said you needed plausible deniability
You said distinct was my perfume when it got into the sheets
And so the bedroom was off limits by June
And I know it was mean leaving my toothbrush by the sink

But Monette, sometimes on paper
We're someone we don't want to be

Hope is so violent and I knew you wouldn't jump ship
Unless you saw another one coming
Hope is so violent and I knew you wouldn't jump ship
Unless you saw another one coming
