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
Hey, Come on, try a little, nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than in the middle
But me and 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
Hey, Hey, Hey, Come on, try a little, nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than in the middle
But me and Cinderella, We put it all together,
We can drive it home with one headlight
Well this place is old 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
Hey, Hey, Hey, Come on, try a little, nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than in the middle
But me and Cinderella, We put it all together,
We can drive it home with one headlight
