[00:10.000]Casey joins the hallow sound of silent people walking down
[00:16.000]The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below
[00:23.000]Following their footsteps through the neon darkened corridors
[00:28.000]Of silent desperation never speaking to a soul
[00:37.000]The poison air he's breathing has a dirty smell of dying
[00:42.000]Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain
[00:50.000]But casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes
[00:56.000]Of the clicking of the turnstyle and the rattle of his chain
[01:08.000]Oh she said, casey it's been so long since i've seen you
[01:18.000]Here she said, just a kiss to make a body smile
[01:27.000]See she said, i put on new stockings just to please you
[01:36.000]Lord she said, casey can you only stay a while
[01:45.000]Casey leaves the underground and stops inside the golden crown
[01:51.000]For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bones
[01:58.000]Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
[02:03.000]Who reach for anything thay can to keep from going home
[02:11.000]Standing in the corner casey drinks his pint of bitter
[02:16.000]Never glancing in the mirror at the people passin' by
[02:24.000]And he stumbles as he's leavin' and he wonders if the reason
[02:30.000]Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye
[02:42.000]Oh she said, i suppose you seldom think about me
[02:51.000]Now she said, now that you've a family of your own
[03:00.000]Still she said, it's so blessed good to feel your body
[03:10.000]Lord she said, casey it's a shame to be alone
[03:22.000]Thank You
