These hammers and strings
To the dark punk rock clubs
Of one thousand American towns
And my friend calls me up
She says how have you been?
I say Dear I've been well
Yeah the money is coming"
I still hear you in this old piano
That we don't talk as much
But I still hear your ghost
In these old punk rock clubs
Give me something to trust
Just promise you won't let it be
Just the keys that you touch
Give me something to believe in
A breath from the breathing
So write it down and don't think that I'll close my eyes
'Coz lately I'm not dreamin'
So what's the point in sleeping?
I've got no where to hide
So I'll write you a lullaby
These hammers and strings
For the snow dirt and sands
Of one thousand American towns
And my friend calls me up
With her heart heavy still
She says Andy the doctors
Give me something to believe in
A breath from the breathing
So write it down and don't think that I'll close my eyes
'Coz lately I'm not dreamin'
So what's the point in sleeping?
I've got no where to hide
To the sleepless this is my reply
I will write you a lullaby
Give me something to believe in
So write it down and don't think that I'll close my eyes
'Coz lately I'm not dreamin'
So what's the point in sleeping?
I've got no where to hide
To the sleepless this is my reply
