Cover art for Loretta's Scars lyrics by Pavement

I think this is a sweet-confused-sad song about a girl named Loretta who's had lots of problems in her life. Metal scars=unhealable. He's trying to figure out how to comfort her without losing too much of himself. Already the sun "makes me anxious makes me run"...he's getting sort of scared by her stories already.
