Lyrics
You never sat alone
And thought about your own
Holding fistfuls of the ashes of the lady you 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 is now approaching and your lips are wet enough
The drink is not too strong
Your taste is never wrong
Though the barman didn't 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 someone you can't
Just promise in the end you'll be back home
A little more to share
A stranger to tear
And you're 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
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 someone you can't
Just promise in the end you'll be back home
A little more to share
A stranger to tear
And you're ready to go
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
