the gentle souls

Eels

I chewed her up and threw her out
Out on the street like a garbage sack
And every day she s calling me up
I don t see why she d wanna come back

Knocking on her best friend s door
Is it okay if I crash here?

She never had a fighting chance
Against a heart so full of holes
Cause she didn t know what she d gotten into
She belongs with the gentle souls

There was a time I can recall
When I believed everything I said
And I can t blame her for lapping up
The petty lies that she was fed

Looking for a stranger s help
I don t know who I should believe

She never had a fighting chance
Against a heart so full of holes
Cause she didn t know what she d gotten into
She belongs with the gentle souls

I chewed her up and threw her out
And changed the lock on my front door
She tried her key and it didn t work
I don t know why she s back for more

Knocking on her best friend s door
Is it okay if I crash here?

She never had a fighting chance
Against a heart so full of holes
Cause she didn t know what she d gotten into
Now she belongs with the gentle souls

Now she belongs with the gentle souls
She never had a fighting chance
