Lyrics

[Verse 1] So long ago, I don't remember when That's when they say I lost my only friend But since she died easy of a broken heart disease I listened through the cemetery trees I seen the sun coming 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 Hey [Hook] Come on, try a little Nothing is forever There's got to be something better than In the middle But me and Cindereller We'll put it all together We can drive it home With one headlight [Verse 2] 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 [Hook] Come on, try a little Nothing is forever There's got to be something better than In the middle But me and Cindereller We put it all together We can drive it home With one headlight [Verse 3] Well, this place is old, it feels just like a beat up truck I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn What 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 dying dreams I think her death, it must be killing me Hey, hey, hey [Hook] Come on, try a little Nothing is forever There's got to be something better than In the middle But me and Cindereller We put it all together We can drive it home With one headlight
