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 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 sign 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 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
