Short Side of Nothing

Dreams wash down the gutter
 All my hopes in vain
 Crows up on the rooftop
 Laughing out my name
 Here I am on the short side of nothing
 Here I am on the short side of nothing
 We danced all night as life stood by
 We told another lie
 Found a spot down by the roadside
 There I closed my eyes
 And here I am on the short side of nothing
 Here I am on the short side of nothing
 All alone, all alone
 Can't find my way home
 Summer has come and the heat hangs low
 No escape in sight
 Sirens scream and lovers moan
 Just like any other night
 And here I am on the short side of nothing
 Here I am on the short side of nothing
 All alone, all alone
 Can't find my way home
