Lyrics

One light blinkin' off and on
The blood of life in this town is gone
Lost all it's pieces but the pawns
Tomorrow stopped comin' with the dawn..

Chorus:
In my dreams, I've seen
Things that only seem to happen on the silver screen
But when it's over there's no walkin' out
'Cause out there all they talk about
Is what ain't goin' down, on main street..

Never did the things I thought I would
Woulda left just didn't know I could
Things don't work out like they should
It ain't for better, but it's for good..

Repeat chorus:

Bridge:
I went to l.a. with a friend of mine
Just to see what it was all about
We hit the freeway, and it blew my mind
I had to find a way of gettin' out..

She said, they say
"Hey, you gotta live a little!"
In my mind, I find, that lost, ain't livin'
Either there, or the middle of main street.... yeah!

Repeat second verse:

Repeat chorus: (twice)
