Thanks for listening.

No Place For Me

The sky is red
my heart is dead
it's time
to head on down the line

Don't care about your past
I'm sorry I asked
hate is deaf
and love is blind

The night is long
and she is gone
but I feel
alright

It's too late for cryin'
too early for dyin'
it's too late
for you and me

     Close the door
     the writing's on the floor
     just cuz I hate you
     doesn't mean I don't want you back

The wreckage of love is smokin'
my heart is stoned
and I am broken
I'm good at what I do
but it ain't doin' any good

Baby, we ain't friends
more'n likely we'll never meet again
and I can't think of any reason why we should

     Close the door
     the writing's on the floor
     just cuz I hate you
     doesn't mean I don't want you back

     I'm free to do what I want
     and go where I please
     so why do I feel
     like there's no place for me?
