Consolation Prize Sharon Van Etten

I came to you
My conscience clean
Blood on my knees

The moral of the story is
Don't walk away again

I called you out
To see my bow
Our final scene

The moral of the story is
Don't look away again
To find a better conversation

I saw you there
Your friends aware
Without a care

The moral of the story is
Don't lie to me again
To find a better conversation
So I can be your consolation prize

You ran away
To stand your ground
Look what I found
