It was one of those nights
when it all comes crashing in
You're saying goodbye
through your eyes to your only friend
And though your words are chosen
and you never let on
he could still hear the pain
in your siren song
still... he never even tried to
put his arm around you

It was one of those days
when you're looking for a new direction
Tearing up the pavements
looking for a soul protection
But it's one of those towns
where you can't get lost
and unless you take the road
where the streets don't cross.
You'll be doing this again
pulling at the reins of depression

You are alone... You are . . .

It was one of those times
when it all catches up to you
You're still on your own
and there's nothing else that you can do
Well you can try to pretend
to be somebody else
but if that's what he wants
then you're still by yourself
sleeping like a whore
or a child in a stranger's room.
Sleeping like a whore
or a child in a stranger's room.

It's one of those nights
when the wind is blowing wild
and you remember to yourself
from the time that you were a child
dreaming like an angel in your family home
waking to the sound of the sparrow song
now you're up here all alone
drinking in the lap of depression
You never thought you'd be here on your own
drinking in the lap of depression

You're all alone... You are...

It was one of those nights
when it all comes crashing in
You're saying goodbye
in your mind to your only friend
Though he's laying right beside you
in a chamber sleep
You're still waiting for that stranger
out there wandering the street
Will he ever come to get you
and take you where you want to be?
Will he ever come to get you
and take you far away from me?
