J Church - Closing Time in an Early Town lyrics

Every day she takes the bus downtown It's what she has to do To keep her mind steady She's always ready for something new Even though she may not want to go She lacks the ability to say "no" She's absolutely confident That every word you tell her is total truth The lights are going down It's late at night in an early town Save yourself, don't hang around Put your dreams in lost and found I know that you'll want to stay I know that you'll run away Your eyes are on the ground It's closing time in an early town Steam may rise from beneath the street It has no scent at all Sorrow takes a 15 minute break And has a smoke out in the hall It's second-hand human misery k**ing off almost everything You may be a k**er of your friends But I know it's not your fault The lights are going down It's late at night in an early town Save yourself, don't hang around Put your dreams in lost and found I know that you'll want to stay I know that you'll run away Your eyes are on the ground It's closing time in an early town Your bus stop has a shelter from the rain But there's no room today The morning paper rotting in the gutter Is a corpse of paper maché The grey matter crumbles in the drink It doesn't make you feel like anything The suits all speak with safety But you don't hear what they say
