lyrics
Oh, so long, insidious city of sin
I can’t believe some of the states I’ve been in
Beautiful stories ending before they begin
Shimmering coins turned into tin
But it’s alright now
I’m all cried out
We’ve all night, now, to make it alright
I trampled so heavy, so eager on all I believed
Sleeping with evil and keeping a card up my sleeve
As soon as I got back I was trying so hard to leave
Bury the corpses in bed - there was no time to grieve
Oh but it’s alright now
I’m all cried out
We’ve all night, now, to make it alright
The long walk
The drunk talk
The drink-sick morning and the race for the mic crown
The adulation of the sodden pub crowd
“The moon weeped; the empty heart heaved the hollow horn”
The racetrack and no way back
The mirrorball and the long haul
The losing streak, the early peak
Judgment of peers and the blind seeking of seers
The Valley of Tears
Little Smoke, and the Prison of Fears
Oh it’s alright now
I’m all cried out
We’ve all night, now, to make it alright
Come on my children, my passengers, time to mount up
Time has been ticking, I’m picking my pieces all up
Some I will carry; some I will toss in the cup that the blind city holds out to me as I climb up in the stirrup
Yeh it’s alright now
I’m all cried out
We’ve all night, now, to make it alright
Oh it’s alright now
I’m all cried out
We’ve all night, now
We’ve all night, now to make it alright
