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 comin´ 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
So I wondered how she hung around this place

[Chorus:]
Hey, come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There´s got to be something better than
In the middle
But me & 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 sun up ahead
At the county line bridge
Sayin´ all there´s good and nothingness is dead
We´ll run until she´s out of breath
She ran until there´s nothin´ left
She hit the end-it´s just her window ledge

[chorus]

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 & 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 the city walls of dyin´ dreams
I think her death it must be killin´ me

[chorus]
