OneHeadLight - Wallflowers

 

So long ago I don't remember when

That's when they say I lost my only friend

Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease

As I listened through the cemetery trees

 

I seen the sun coming up at the funeral at dawn

The long broken arm of human law

Now it always seemed such a waste

She always had a pretty face

I wondered why she hung around this place

 

Hey, come on try a little, nothing is forever

There's got to be something better than in the middle

But me and Cinderella we put it all together

We can drive it home with one headlight

 

She said it's cold, it feels like Independence Day

And I can't break away from this parade

But there's got to be an opening

Somewhere here in front of me

Through this maze of ugliness and greed

 

And I seen the sign up ahead at the county line bridge

Saying all is good and nothingness is dead

Run until she's out of breath

She ran until there's nothing left

She hit the end, it's just her window ledge

 

Hey, come on try a little, nothing is forever

There's got to be something better than in the middle

But me and Cinderella we put it all together

We can drive it home with one headlight

 

Well this place is old, it feels just like a beat up truck

I turn the engine but the engine doesn't turn

Well it smells of cheap wine and cigarettes

This place is always such a mess

Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn

 

I'm so alone and I feel just like somebody else

Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same

But somewhere here in between

These city walls of dying dreams

I think her death it must be killing me

 

Hey, hey, hey! Come on try a little, nothing is forever

There's got to be something better than in the middle

But me and Cinderella we put it all together

We can drive it home with one headlight
