There were dreams on a full moon night Big black hole in the middle of the light The painless times that we were feeling alright We were breaking down the walls Dirty little basements and electric guitar The sound of the river and the pines in the stars Drank a little too much. Yeah, we took it too far Well the most of us survived So much comin' out, there's nothin' goin' in With the skirt above your knee and your murderous grin Oh, tell me that you're not leaving You were standing there so literal and free Writing pretty poems and ruining me It took a little time, but baby now I see, that the end is always near I was sleeping on a couch with a shivering dog Practicing my speeches and studying the law Nothing in the cupboard but a hammer and a saw And some nails to drive it home So much comin' out, there's nothin' goin' in I could write it down, but that would be a sin And you know how I feel about sinnin' Charlie's on stage in the roof makin' laughs[?] No one seems too worried about the light in the gaps Of the walls painted yellow and papered with maps They remind us it's time to move on Pretty little city built on a hillside There's music in the bars and fire in the sky We went to the beach, and it was covered in ice And I used to call it home [Chorus] So much comin' out, there's nothin' goin' in I know that you feel like you're never gonna win Aw, but the world won't forgive a winner
