So long ago, I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
Well, 1 said she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through the 2 trees

I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
With the 3 broken arm of human law
Now, it always seemed such a 4
She always had a pretty face
I wondered why she hung around 5 place

Hey
Come on, try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something 6 than
In the middle
But me and Cinderella
We put it all 7
We can drive it home
With one headlight

She said it's 8
It feels like Independence Day
And I can't break away from this parade
But 9 's got to be an opening
Somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sign up ahead
At the county line bridge
Sayin' all is good and nothingness is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothin' left
She hit the end, it's just her window ledge

Hey
Come on, try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
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 of cheap wine and 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 the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think your death, it must be killin' me

Hey, hey, hey
Come on, try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight
