Her face had a run in with a fist
Or a steerin' wheel
You could hear her coming from the click
Of her plastic heel
In signs of life
And you're just standing here
Behind your eyes
There's no one anywhere
Sleepin' on a subway
City up above me
Dreamin' up the words to a song
Bettin' on a someday
Wakin' up at someplace
Please believe me baby I know
It holds you tight
Then it lets you go
Never look back
Just left it alone
Grab my coat my hat
Let the train take me home
Sleepin' on a subway
City up above me
Runnin' since the day I was born
Bettin' on a someday
Wakin' up at someplace
Please believe me baby I know
Callin' at me tell me she's sick
And tellin' me she needs some help
Old woman suckin' on a dick for a dollar bill
In signs of life
And you're just standing here
Behind your eyes
There's no one anywhere
Sleepin' on a subway
City' up above me
Dreamin' up the words to a song
Bettin' on a someday
Wakin up' at someplace
Please believe me baby I know
It's that little piece of nothin'
That won't let you go
Didn't look back
Just left it alone
Grab my coat my hat
Let the train take me home
Sleepin' on a subway
City up above me
Runnin' since the day I was born
Bettin' on a someday
Wakin' up at someplace
Please believe me baby I know
The living under bridges thing
Where I was only visiting
Where ladies drink the listerine
To keep their livers clean in wintergreen
