Just why I stayed around when all. I found was a heartache. I believed your every word. Didn't know the hurt and pain that you'd make. But why did it take so long.
Night ain't a friend. It's black and so still. It waits like a cat. Then moves in for the kill. It casts it's shadows high on the wall. It's givin' me no peace at all.
It's been a year since I was here. On the street I'm just passing my time away. To the left and to the right a town of stone grows to the sky. And it's out of sight in a fading light here I am again in the city.

Main street U.S.A boarded up and dry. Knowin' what once was here just makes me want to cry. Used to be the favorite place. Now what remains are memories even time cannot erase.
