Maria's Little Elbows Lyrics - Sparklehorse

Well I'll bet my Maria's got an elbow full of lonely 

Now here's a little prayer so that she might get some sleep 

Don't let her face be skinned by the sun today 

Don't let it in when it comes knocking at your door 

Loneliness 

Loneliness 

Loneliness 

Sometimes you feel you got the emptiest arms in the whole world 

Try to make sense but it always comes out absurd 

Sleeping horses keep eating up your flowers 

Don't let 'em in when it comes kicking at your door 

Loneliness 

Loneliness 

Loneliness 

Came kicking at my door 

She said, "I've really come to hate my body 

And all the things that it requires in this world" 

I bet you're out there getting drunk with all your friends 

And it'll get you in the bathroom of a Texaco 

Loneliness 

Loneliness 

Loneliness 

Came kicking at my door
