No Passenger Lyrics - Singles - Boiled In Lead

Walkin' down an empty street in a city I don't know 

Whistlin something catchy as I make my way through snow. 

Ain't got no gloves so I keep my hands balled up in fists; 

I'm tryin' not to think how it all came down to this. 

I been searching for a sparrow in a city full of wrens 

I been asking for the cost so I can make amends 

I been waiting for the questions so my answers will make sense 

I been looking for the way home but the snow is much too dense. 

They said "Why are you here?" I said, "I'm doin' time 

Cause I'm willing to break laws but I won't commit no crime." 

If there's more to making choices than luck and happenstance, 

I hope I do it right next time I get the chance. 

This city seems so cold, and it isn't just the wind. 

I would be easy to say, "I'm here because I sinned." 

I'm here because someday someone will need a ride 

And I'll throw away my drink and say, "The coach awaits outside."
