Loveless Motel

she keeps her paintings in a big white van  

she sips her mulberry tea from her mom’s chipped porcelain  

she’s telling me about her 70s band  

she’s telling me how brave i am  

for checking into  

 

the loveless motel  

to find yourself a heaven,  

you’ve gotta raise a little hell  

 

i’m putting on my reddest for the lipstick lounge  

and i'm hoping somebody will smear it  

ended up singing my heart out  

to a muse who looked like my mirror 

wrecking my stockings like joni  

guess the road is a little less lonely  

the road leading to the 

  

chorus 

springwater dive  

and broadway, baby  

i can see the divide,  

but i can feel the gravity  

we checked into the loveless,  

now we can’t ever leave  

cause it gets into your blood  

now we all bleed the same thing  

out into our songs  

we make the nights all the longer  

a shot for each changing key  

how could it be wrong  

living life as a wanderer  

when you can always check back into the  

 

loveless motel  

i found my piece of heaven  

is being out here raising hell  

cause i belong to the loveless motel  

and i won’t know peace  

cause the loveless is inside of me
