Lyrics

So long ago I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
They say she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through them cemetery trees
I seen the sun coming up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now it always seems such a waste
She always had a pretty face
So I wondered how she hung around this place
Hey, come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than in the meadow
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight
She said it's cold
It feels like Independence Day
And I can't break away from this parade
But there's got to be an opening somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sun up ahead at the county line bridge
Saying all there's good and nothingness is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothing left
She hit the end it's just her window ledge
Hey, hey, hey
Come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than in the meadow
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight
Well this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine but the engine doesn't turn
Well it smells like cheap wine, cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone
And I feel just like somebody else
Man I ain't changed
But I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between
These city walls of dying dreams
I think of death it must be killing me
Hey, hey, hey
Come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than in the meadow
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight
Oh we can drive it home, baby
With one headlight
