What do you know, what do you do
What do you have left when it's all through
They told you lies, go run and hide
You'll meet the sun dripping down from the sky
You wanna push, you wanna pull
Askin' for more when you're already full
CHORUS
Only alive, on the dead street
Zoner's all right, on his lead feet
Only alive, in his mind, on the dead street all night
Will he survive, will he die, by the morning light
(he'll be allright he'll be allright)
2.
When you were mine, I had to find
A spot in your little eye that was not blind
Where did you go, what did you do
What do you think, happened to me? Oh no...
I had to eat, berries and seeds
Anything that fell down from the trees
Beggars and thieves, left me to bleed
Cut at the knees but you know I'll never leave
CHORUS
3.
All that you knew, never was true
I wanna know, is that what makes you blue?
Paper and words, easily burn
up in the flames, truth is so absurd
You had to run, said you had fun
I just don't know now that it's done
