A Place Of Cries

Don't move another step, stop, stay right there
Stop all the traffic now! Let's clear the air
You think the world will always be the same
They make us play 'cause they don't care

'Tis a place of cries, 'tis not happy
I'm not ready for anything to happen
That's not why I'm here. And my life
Is sailing away

They are to blame for what I am and they know it
Tomorrow they'll regret what they did today
I know tomorrow and I need to borrow sorrow
Tomorrow's nothing, you can shove it where you say

'Tis a place of cries, 'tis not happy
I'm not ready for anything to happen
That's not why I'm here. And my life
Is drifting away

You'll never hit the jackpot, just don't get soft
Go on and kick'em in the guts, for Christ's sake
Ain't you surprised to see me here again?
I won't forget you, won't you go?
