so long ago i don't remember when
that's when they say i lost my only friend
but she said she died easy of a broken heart disease
as i listen through the cemetery trees
i seen the sun coming up at the funeral at dawn
the long broken arm of human law
not always seems such a waste
she always had a pretty face to wonder
as 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
me and cinderella put it all together
we can drive it home
with warm headlights
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've seen the sun up ahead at the county line
bridge saying all is good and nothingness is dead
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
me and cinderella we put it all together
we can drive it home
the one headlights
well this place is old
it feels just like a beat up truck
i turn the engine but the engine doesn't turn
the 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 have changed but i know i ain't the same
somewhere here in between
the city walls of dying dreams
i think of death it must be killing me
hey hey hey
come on try a little nothing is forever
there's got to be something better than in the middle
me and cinderella we put it all together
we can drive it home with one hand my time
