the morning sun's about to break,
|
i'm looking in as you create someone,
|
you lift your head and brush your teeth,
|
and make your bed as if you won't sleep again,
|
you fix your hair and tie your shoes,
|
and tuck your shirt and now you feel new.
|
|
the glass is full, the glass is broke,
|
and every day dissolves and there's no hope
|
of ever leaving this temporary life.
|
of ever leaving this temporary life.
|
|
you may ask yourself "is there anyone so alone?"
|
but there's no beep before the dial-tone
|
when you pick it up to see who called
|
if there is it's probably your mom
|
|
but, oh, the rising sun brings little cheer
|
to this city with the stolen name
|
and you're wondering whose bright idea
|
it was to pack your things and leave your friends
|
and move down here.
