Karaoké One Headlight The 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 see 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

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 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

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 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

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
