U never sat alone
And thought about your own
Holding fisfuls of the ashes of the lady u once were

Your shelves are empty now
Your heart is overblown
And the streets you used to blame are now ashamed of you

The night is where you're from
At least you thought so
As the darkness's now approaching and your lips are wet enough

The drink is not too strong
Your taste is never wrong
Though the barman didnt save a single drop of rum

You're far away from home
Staring at no one
Waiting long for a better income

Your time is never gone
You'll always be the one
And never will you have to expose your bones

It's not that you pretend
To be somone you can't
Just promise in the end you'll be back home

A little more to share
A stranger to tear
And your ready to go

The books you read
Inside your head
Are the fuel you claim to feel alive

They dry your tears
Along, within
And then burn down to the ashes of past

Hunting thoughts of a heartless soul
Never leave, never let you go
Brought no warmth and won't bring no cold
Pass you by and retain your glow
