Been hanging ‘round
The streets of lonelytown
A ghost on the block
Waiting for someone
To bring me back again
Got time to talk
Lonelytown
You only bring me down
Lonelytown
It’s like I feared
I’m getting colder every year
My throat’s dry as chalk
They look my way
And see the other side
And then they walk
Lonelytown
A scarecrow with a crown
You washed-up clown
Your smile turned into a frown
Lonelytown
Still blowing ‘round
The streets of lonelytown
Got time on the clock
Searching for someone
To bring me back again
Got eyes like a hawk

We Are Two
04:38

And we go spinning 'round each other
Drawn as we are unto one another
Trying to break through
When in our hearts, we are two
And we're caught in a fascination
Grasping at hope, shackled with frustration
Wondering what to do
'Cause in our hearts, we are two
Though holding close we stand apart
We're side by side but lonely from the start
It's plain to see there's me, there's you
And we are never one but always two
And we choose our fates and sad conclusions
Drawing away from desired illusions
Facing what is true
That in our hearts, we are two
No longer close, we grow apart
Too late to find our way back to the start
For in the end there's me, there's you
And we were never one, but always two
And we go spinning from each other
Building the space between one another
Trying to make do
Accepting what we knew
That in our hearts we are two
Yes, in our hearts, we are two

Living in a Coma
03:05

Black flies
Boiling over
Capsized
I don’t know what to do
Dark skies
Turning over
She cries
You’re living in a coma
And nothing gets done
Another day, another blank page
Though I know I’m under the gun
Gonna try to wake up someday
Someday
No sign
Pulling over
It was mine
But I’m only passing through
Thin line
Going over
That’s fine
I’m just living in a coma
And nothing gets done
Another day, another blank page
Though I know I’m under the gun
Gonna try to wake up someday
Gonna sing the things I can’t say
Gonna reason with the Milky Way
Gonna come alive again
Again
Brown eyes
Spilling over
She sighs
There must be something you can do
Gone dry
Rolling over
Well, I try
But I’m living in a coma
Living in a coma

You know it’s been so many years
Since the day that we first met
We think of all the good memories
And forget all our regrets.
So we may be a little bit past our prime
We still got a lot in store,
We’ll just keep on gettin' on
Until we can't go on anymore.
You’ve seen me at the best of times
You’ve seen me at my worst,
And the times I was so tired and lost
You came and you quenched my thirst.
So let ‘em play us another song
We’re still dancing 'cross this floor,
We’ll just keep on gettin' on
Until we can't go on anymore.
You’ve been my closest confidant,
You’re my lover and my friend,
You know you mean the world to me
And you will until the end.
And though the hour is gettin’ late
And our bones are gettin’ sore,
We’ll just keep on gettin' on
Until we can't go on anymore.
And if they turn the house lights off
We’ll just waltz on through that door
We’ll just keep on gettin’ on
Until we can’t go on anymore
We’ll just keep on gettin' on
Until we can't go on anymore.
Just keep on gettin' on
Until we can't go on anymore.

Rise at dawn and greet the day
Darling, wash the sleep away
'Cause the hours are running out
They're running out on us
Couldn't keep the dream alive
Couldn't say we didn't try
And now our time is running out
It's running out on us
We'll be singing as the ship goes down, goes down
We'll be singing as the ship goes down, goes down
Not a dime to pay the bills
Take the few remaining pills
'Cause what we have is running out
It's running out on us
We'll be singing as the ship goes down, goes down
We'll be singing as the ship goes down, goes down
Oh, this time we will surely drown, we will drown
We'll be singing as the ship goes down
Held in our hands
The seed of our plans
Saw it start to grow
We tried to manage
Find an advantage
Contain the damage
But in this life
You just never know
And now our hope is running out
It's running out on us
We'll be singing as the ship goes down, goes down
We'll be singing as the ship goes down, goes down
Yes, this time we will surely drown, we will drown
We'll be singing as the ship goes down, goes down
We'll be singing as the ship goes down, goes down
We'll be singing as the ship goes down, goes down
Let your song be your final sound, make it loud
And be singing as the ship goes down
Goes down
