lyrics

Empty bottles

all the broken ladies sing
they won't wear the wedding ring
keep me pure keep me sane
keep me virgin forever remain

all the novice hopefuls sing
for the covent's ice-cream ring
bubbling ocean, boiling god
drowned my only childhood

if could give you anything
i'd give you an angel who could sing
a song to take away the pain
heal the fire in the rain

preacher broken hits the ground
empty bottles lie around
wide eyed daughter runs away
Jesus teach me how to pray

if I could......
