So long ago, I don't remember when  That'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 comin' 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    [Chorus:]  Hey, come on try a little  Nothing is forever  There's got to be something better than   In the middle  But me & Cinderella  We put it all together  We can drive it home  With one headlight    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 seen the sun up ahead  At the county line bridge  Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead  We'll run until she's out of breath  She ran until there's nothin' left  She hit the end-it's just her window ledge    [chorus]    Well this place is old  It feels just like a beat up truck  I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn  Well it 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 ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same  But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams  I think her death it must be killin' me    [chorus]
