So long ago, i donand't remember when
thatand'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 cominand' 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
thereand'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 itand's cold
it feels like independence day
and i canand't break away from this parade
but thereand'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
sayinand' all thereand's good and nothingness is dead
weand'll run until sheand's out of breath
she ran until thereand's nothinand' left
she hit the end itand's just her window ledge
hey, come on try a little
nothing is forever
thereand'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 doesnand't turn
well it smells of cheap wine and cigarettes
this place is always such a mess
sometimes i think iand'd like to watch it burn
iand'm so alone, and i feel just like somebody else
man, i ainand't changed, but i know i ainand't the same
but somewhere here in between the city walls of dyinand' dreams
i think of death it must be killinand' me
hey, come on try a little
nothing is forever
thereand'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
