A Strange Loss (Alternate Version) Lyrics

You may keep all your secrets

A little further from your thoughts

You can throw out the prescriptions

That sleepless nights have brought

You can change the shitty laws

And the colour of your hair

You're the jailer of your burden, dear

And I've come to take my share

To wipe out all your memories

Of the rules we used to trust

You're a thief that has been stolen from

I will pay for what we've lost

A strange loss we drew

A strange loss we drew

I know I can't make up for it

But I'll give my best to you

In my suit of tar-and-feathers

I will hold you through the night

If you wanna rise together, dear

Let's rise into the light

A strange loss we drew

A strange loss we drew

I know I can't make up for it

But I'll give my best to you

I know I can't make up for it

But I'll try my best for you
