One Headlight

So long ago, I don't re-

member 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

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 head-

light

She said it's

cold, It feels like Inde-

pendence Day

And I

can't break away from this pa-

rade

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

Some-

times I think I'd like to watch it

burn

I'm so a-

lone and I feel just like some-

body 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 of 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...
