Poor Girl
X Lyrics

You sat at home the windows tinted black
You were sitting at home, probably feeling sad or depressed, with blackened windows to block out the outside world.

it hits you hard and you cried so long
Something happened and it deeply affected you, causing you to cry for an extended period of time.

life turned & wandered never to come back again
Life took a turn for the worse and things will never be the same again.

takes what she gives you don't feel sorry for her
You accept whatever life throws your way, and you don't pity yourself.

when you fell out of the starlight inn
You experienced some kind of negative event while at the Starlight Inn.

you were too hurt to walk to bad to begin
You were in so much pain that you couldn't even muster the strength to walk, let alone start over.

I looked at the sign but I couldn't feel sad for you
Even though you were clearly going through a tough time, I couldn't find it in me to empathize with you.

don't cry when you kiss her poor little girl
You shouldn't feel sorry for yourself when you're with this girl who is also going through a difficult time.

ran away from home I try to explain why she won't say a thing
She left her home for some unknown reason, and I'm trying to understand why she's being so quiet about it.

sad sad thing I'm so far away now
It's a sad situation, and now that I'm not with her, it feels even worse.

how can I say why she won't talk at all
I'm struggling to figure out why she's refusing to speak.

she holds the deck of cards she wants to be alone
She's carrying a deck of cards, a symbol of solitude and isolation, because she wants to be by herself.

ill be very ill and I tried waking up now I want to be alone
She's feeling sick and exhausted, and just wants to be left alone.

when you ran out of petes hotel you didn't look so good and you didn't feel so well
You left Pete's Hotel in a bad state, physically and emotionally.

hold me tight but I couldn't get it right
Even though you were trying to comfort me, it just wasn't enough to make me feel better.

poor little girl
A sad statement about the girl, implying that she's going through a difficult time and perhaps needs help or support.

she still drinks in the dark the radio is left on late
She's still drinking alone in the darkness, with the radio playing in the background.

she saw a madman fight and break it all cause she hated himself and she felt better off cause she was only drunk
She witnessed a violent confrontation and felt a sense of relief, perhaps because she was drunk and no longer capable or willing to deal with the complexities of reality.
