Her face had a run in with a fist

Or a steerin' wheel

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
