In the murder city But not hopeless I feel so useless But not helpless The clock strikes midnight We are the last call And it's too pathetic I'm wide awake

I've been a liar, been a thief Been a lover, been a cheat All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me If all it's gonna cause is pain So let the river run Well, little one, I don't want to admit to something The truth and my lies now are falling

I am going, I am going Where streams of whiskey are flowing Any which way the wind may be blowing Last night as I slept I dreamt I met with Behan I shook him by the hand and we passed the time of day When questioned on his views On the crux of life's

Way down we go And way down we go Say way down we go Father tell me, we get what we deserve Oh we get what we deserve You let your feet run wild Time has come as we all oh, go down Yeah but for the fall oh, my Do you dare to look him right in the eyes?

I promise to take you, take you as you are I know we've all got our problems And it's a blessing that we made it here so far And if you lay here in these arms tonight I promise All I have is here and now If the ground beneath, our feet has disappeared

The skin that you're in is all soft now And your bones are dry as ice What you sitting round here for and why is that Cos everybody's pushing out babies now In the mornings I was getting high with you Well I thought I'd see you around but you're dead now

Cigarette smoker, I'm sorry But we're all unsure how much you've had But we think that you outta maybe not have anymore Sat at the side of the pool at one of your houses With wet white trousers on And worlds collide as the evening continues, the dignity

I said you are Said baby you're the greatest Of all time the greatest So won't you hit my line You're still on my mind Said I ain't seen your ass in a couple months But if you want it baby you can get you some And all that conflict, we can work out So

Sara Beth is scared to death Around and around without any cares And her very first love is holding her close And a soft wind is blowing her hair To hear what the doctor will say She hasn't been well, since the day that she fell And the bruise it just

'Bout how you saved my life I wanna talk tonight (I wanna talk tonight) Until the mornin' light You and me see how we are Sittin' on my own Chewin' on a bone A thousand million Miles from home
