Kid You're On Your Own

Dashboard Jesus in a taxi cab

Never heard a word the driver said

You're in the backseat hanging on by a thread

The sun goes down but don't come up again

Kid, you're on your own

Kid, you're on your own

Console woman falling down so slow

Voices carry from the street below

Four floor apartment comers at it again

This polluted city makes my head a mess

Kid, you're on your own

Kid, you're on your own

Come back, come back and tell me this is it

You got to come back 'cause all I ever wanted was to be something

And everyone you love slips through your hands like sand

And why can't some place just feel like home?

That cage follows you wherever you go

And why are you there bleeding in my dreams?

Well baby, all things fade away, it seems

Kid, you're on your own

Kid, you're on your own

Come back, come back and tell me this is it

You got to come back 'cause all I ever wanted was to be something

And everyone you love slips through your hands like sand

Don't let it make you hate

Falling down again and again and again

So take your face out of your hands

Everyone feels so far away

Come back, come back and tell me this is it

You got to come back 'cause all I ever wanted was to be something

And everyone you love slips through your hands like sand
