Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Eight tiny lines of cocaine
Left on a copy machine
In an empty corner of a dream
My sleep could not complete
[Verse 2]
There are sirens in the birds
And you and I are too far apart
And my eyes need a shave
What else can go wrong?
[Verse 3]
Now that I'm not longed for
Wild life seems wrong
Won't care
Won't stare
You've got family out there
[Verse 4]
The silver black boot
That cracked my front tooth
Is a new kind of truth
I'm getting used to
[Verse 5]
Come back lonely
How sad
If only
I don't believe you don't care
You've got family out there
[Verse 6]
Where the power lines are down
Whipping sparks around
Like angels touching down
I see you there
[Verse 7]
How sad
If only
Don't believe you don't care
You've got family out there
You've got family out there
