you only walk straight when it's dark outside
pretend you gotta catch your ride
on top of you, it's just like jumping a fence
it hurts like hell, this dancing
but if i climb down there's nothing to sell
between the evening and all the church bells
hey man, at least you did it all by yourself
you hang and you bang and you
still got your health
your boy calls, says he needs a friendly ear
but all i want's a beer
and 20 minutes with your hand down there
be hard, be fair, stay near me
you left an old matchbook on my window sill
but it was empty and you've had your fill
i throw it away and i reach for a pill
you're thumbing right through
that old withered show bill
the last word starts right here, you know
it's got nowhere to go
the last song ends, the lights fall low
but we've got nothing to show
and i'll just lie here huddled in my lack
of afterglow, you stole
when you peeled your body off mine
like a sticker on a new wine glass
you got wet so it'd come off nice and fast
the names were misspelled
but the faces they fell
you act like a sellout, but it's just as well
let's take this road show back to the hotel
turn on a news show
let's feel the ground swell
i take a long, hard heavy sip
and a drag from your last cigarette
and it's almost as stale and limp
as a soft, cold kiss from your lip
the last word starts right here, you know
but it's got nowhere to go
the last song stops, the lights fall low
but we've got nothing to show
