The rent-a-cops are sleeping
There's nobody to watch me pa**
And the trees have been weeping
Their tears are still upon the gra**
You're the drink I could not swallow
You're the cinder in my eye
I walk among the stones again in the place we said goodbye
Why should I try to hang on?
When the world keeps shutting me out
I've done everything wrong
Since you fell off the face of the earth
Since you fell off the face of the earth
Now as the stars are dying
I hide my head behind the wall
There's seven kinds of sorrow
And darling I can name them all
You're the path I could not follow
To the place where no one cries
I walk among the stones again in the place we said goodbye
Why should I try to hang on?
When the world keeps shutting me out
I've done everything wrong
Since you fell off the face of the earth
Since you fell off the face of the earth...
