It's gonna be a hard, hard, hard night
I'm bored and the bottle's gone, the cupboard is bare
And out the window eating darkness, swallowing light
An oak tree somewhere silent, doesn't care
Doesn't care
Pack the glances in the mirror in a suitcase tight
She stole my last cigarette, gonna be a hard night
Sweeping up the broken glass from last nights fight
An empty swingset weeping, they've all gone home
They've all gone home
Blowing smoke rings under water as the heat sits till
Look hard at the ones who left, and the ones who will
Grab an anchor and leap overboard, but do it right
This broken ship is sailing, hold on tight
A long hard night
A long hard night
A long hard night

It's just one day, one day, in a million
Just one day, long enough to tie one on
Tie one on, tie one on
I wanna get lost
Don't wanna be found
For just one day
It's just one girl, one girl, in a billion
Just one girl, sharp enough to cut me down
Chop me down
My head is heavy
My heart is tired
Lift me up
Life me up, chop me down
Lift me up, chop me down
Lift me up, chop me down
My head is heavy
My heart is tired
Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up
My heart is heavy

What would you say my friend,
when the rope is tied and taught?
Your road is comin' to an end,
and your final fights been fought.
What would you do my love
with your Mama in your face?
Maybe you'll give her a shove
and your heart will pick up it's pace.
Your heart will pick up it's pace with yer Mama in your face.
Oh Mama, don't go! Please I'm dyin'.
Oh son! I forgive you, can't you see I'm cryin' I'm cryin', but I'm here, and I won't close my eyes.
I won't close my eyes boy. No, no, no I won't close my eyes.
What does it matter Mama, the black hood is my fate
and on the other side of it the people snarl and wait.
This black hood isn't fake
ANd on thother side of it Mama the people smile and wait.
So Mama, so long! Now I'm leavin', stop heavin'
Send in the clowns, there's nothin' here for you but sadness time madness, so now go...walk away...turn around...there's nothin' to say

The Lost and I

I slipped along the banks of the frozen river by your house
A snowy pond, a kite, is flying high and quiet there
Oh quiet there
The wind it moans, my fingers try to squeeze each other warm
Two black crows, fly high, they circle around me looking down
Oh, the crows looking down
We are alone the crows and I
The Wind, the Crows, and I
For the last two weeks I've had strangers say to me, "Hey you look tired."
I stare down at my feet, fold my tongue and hardly squeak, "Well maybe so."
Maybe so
Maybe so
My head it tilts my tongue it catches snow flakes falling soft
And when they die, my warmth, it only magnifies what's lost
Oh the lost and I
We are alone the lost and I
The wind, the crows, the lost and I

Where do your interests lie
Oh god, oh god
Where do they lie
You duck when the fast bullets fly
Oh god, oh god
You duck when they fly
Please surrender
You don't have to feel any more
Please surrender,
You're cryin' but I don't know what for
Why did you keep me nearby
Oh god, oh god
You kept me nearby
Why don't you just say good bye
Oh god, oh god
Just say goodbye
Please surrender
You don't have to suffer at all
Please surrender
I'm here if you want to call
But I'm leavin' when you start to fall
I'm

He walked out but forgot his coat on the floor
Finally noticed when shivering he walked through the door
Sat right down and proceeded to drown some more
Oh my god, tomorrow cannot come too soon
Cover, my eyes from my face
No one, can see me this way
She sat back down, and brought her eyes, to the bar
Condensation drips down the glass
Oh dear god I felt like I'd come so far
Conversations happen so fast
Cover my eyes from my face
No one can see me this way
No one
And then I stumbled, and put my hand down in the sun
My stomach grumbled, and a fire began to burn
It burned along the wall, I'd built up so tall
Douse that fire with black cats and kerosene
You laugh, but you all know exactly what I mean
So cover your eyes from your face
No one can see you this way
No one

Cry a Lake

I'm no help at all, but I'll be here when you get old
Far away is somewhere in my lens
I've fallen al along, but I'll be here when you get old
There's always another day ya know
I don't want ya to, cry a lake
I don't want you to maim yourself
Your tender heart will come apart and I don't wanna watch
You're never gonna believe, my self fulfilling prophecy
I dream that it happens and it does
I'm on my last four legs, not breathin' but I'm your friend
Slippin' through the cracks on the cold, concrete
And I don't want ya to, cry a lake
I don't want you to maim yourself
Your tender heart will come apart and I don't want to watch
