broken town

one more broken town
one more bout of loneliness
one more last time around
bottles full of emptiness
hiding in the crowd again
waiting for a train

out of this broken town
falling through the cracks again
and if you’d come around
I’d be happy to pretend
that since I fell apart on you
I’m not so broken down
here in this broken town

and it’s in the eyes of strangers
and it’s hidden in the walls
just like a rain that never falls

one more broken town
one more bag of memories
sticking to the ground
dissolution by degrees
the streets are full of friends and thieves
and they all let me down
here in this broken town
