I've been known to walk at night Where streetlights end And dark begins And lately i've been occupied With things i should have left behind All my shortfalls notwithstanding I could give a lot to you Press thisdtream up muddy river Underneath the drowsy moon I've been seen out all alone Past grocery stores and mobile homes Beyond the glow of industrial parks Where laundromats spin broken hearts Out among the powerlines Things don't always turn out fine There's a message in this nursery rhyme
