I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn

The long broken arm of human law

Hey, come on try a little nothing is forever

There's got to be something better than in the middle
G                        D                Em
 But me and Cinderella we put all together

We can drive it home with one headlight

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
       F#                                  Bm   A
Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead
      G                                 D
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

       G                           D
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody elce
            F#                              Bm   A
Man i ain't changed, but i know I ain't the same
    G                             D
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
