No Use For A Name |
|
Hard Rock Bottom |
|
Let Me Down |
|
She's never alone, because she's scared of what she might say to herself |
|
Always drinking in the backroom of the bar where everyone turns in |
|
A half-hearted grin |
|
She won't be afraid as long as that prescription keeps going through |
|
And all the happy pills make her look like cardboard cut out of someone, |
|
I use to learn from |
|
But on the phone, she's telling everyone, |
|
that there was a blue sky, she left behind |
|
And there's a place that no one knows about, |
|
Away from integrity she writes a book in her head that nobody will read |
|
Whatever you say, please don't talk about the time when she was young |
|
Apparently that was a different person and so long ago it's strange to me, |
|
there's no history |
|
But there's a past and she's telling everyone It must be a garden, |
|
that wouldn't grow |
|
With roots of shame, too sensitive to blame to herself as we watch he drown, |
|
I can't save the queen without a kingdom or a crown |
|
Somewhere in this lonely game of sympathy there is a selfish dream |
|
That makes me sick |
|
Standing on the high wire while you're on the ground |
|
To you what is dangerous is safe and sound... |
|
You let me down |
