Well I know your life has been hard. I see it in your eyes and I feel it in your heart. When your eyes move down to the floor. And your mouth changes shape, and your voice sounds sore.
I went to high school with that kid. He was even strange back then. The type whose eyes don't leave the floor. Blend in with the cement. . Well, I felt so bad for that kid.
Well, I've been thinkin', like you've been drinkin'. But, I know thinkin' is the last thing on your mind.. But, I've been hopin', to get this out in the open..
don't tell her that I drink tea and not coffee. I'd prefer if you didn't talk at all about me. even in a brief casual chat. don't tell her how I loved your smile, or things like that.
Praise the neon lights. The store's not closed up yet. Now everything's alright. So get your cigarettes. . Leave me with the house. Leave me with the kids.
The number to the house is on the door. But every time you open it as if you are not sure. If you even live here anymore,. Anymore.... . I know what you're about to say.
If I could buy this town. I'd keep it small and rough. Full of third shift dreamers. And high school love. . I'd keep the Church of Christ. And the bowling alley open.
This is cold and dark, this place. You are broken, what will replace. The hole that has been dug here. Emptiness left where. Once I was so aware. Aware of you.
No strangers in this town. No one moves without making a sound. You live and die within the borders and lines. No one dies without paying their fines.
She's crying again. You lay quiet on her chest. She knows you're a dangerous comfort. But you haven't broken her heart yet. . She wants to feel safe again.
Well the sky might fall and I'm Chicken Little yelling. While I am floating out to sea. Well I am tugging at your ear for some attention. Don't you give a damn about me?.
I turn the lights on in the hallway. Walk down the stairs without a bit of grace. The TVs on and the weather man says. It's just another sunny day. . Open up the curtains in the bay window.

Well I get dressed in the dark each day. Used to think that as so sweet. By 6am I'm in the car driving. I keep my change in the car ashtray. I haven't smoked in years and years.
You can have him. I hope you have fun. Well I guess wife number three could be the one. But it won't the long. 'til you won't be new. And he'll be downtown trying to find someone.
There's a bird making coffee in the kitchen. And there's a rifle out back smoking cigarettes. He don't ever really feel like talking. It don't matter what she says.

You know there's a light that glows by the front door. Don't forget the key's under the mat. When childhood stars shine. Always stay humble and kind. .
Halfway home. Well you ain't so sure he's the one. 4AM and you drive alone. With last night's clothes on. Halfway home. Tell yourself you're still strong.
