One Headlight

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

I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn 
The long broken arm of human law 
Now it always seemed such a waste 
She always had a pretty face 
So I wondered how she hung around this place 

Chorus: 
Hey, come on try a little 
Nothing is forever 
There's got to be something better than 
In the middle 
But me & 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 
Sayin' all there's 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 

(chorus) 

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 & 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 her death it must be killin' me 

(chorus)
