Hailstones and a sickle moon and the north wind races One more night of running my mind over lost embraces The steps you made when you walked away Still frozen in the ground Oh, Missie, how you let me down Oh, Missie, how you let me down Oh, Missie, how you let me down And lies won't break my fall Lies won't break my fall Your food's still sitting there at the table where you used to be The shape of you is still in the bed there, next to me Maybe I could find some trace of you to keep around Oh, Missie, how you let me down Oh, Missie, how you let me down For far too long you kept me waiting Reaching out into empty air Even now you'd never say it face to face That you really don't care And if you never liked pulling teeth Then why? Why did you tie me in the dentist's chair? Ah, you left your mark on this old place, that you did I could stew in here like a pressure cooker and screw down the lid Or maybe I should just take a match And burn the whole thing to the ground Oh, Missie, how you let me down Oh, Missie, how you let me down Oh, Missie, how you let me down Oh, Missie, how you let me down Oh, Missie, how you let me down Oh, Missie, how you let me down And lies won't break my fall Lies won't break my fall
