2001

[Verse 1]
There's no hope for myself trying to be a good pearl
Tried to walk the line and see the light
But as the sun sets, the lonelier I get

[Pre-Chorus]
Tried to put my thoughts down
Keep my hands in my pockets
Not to make a sound or go downtown
Just cocaine and running and howling all night long
A tango with hell, but it sure don’t matter none

[Chorus]
'Cause my baby left me in 2001 and I
Haven't seen the sun since he’s been gone
All I do is watch the moon

[Verse 2]
Nothing's right, it's all messed up I'm lonely and I'm grieving
My conscience, hallelujah drives me to thinking
And all the good in me to leaving

[Pre-Chorus]
Tried to put my thoughts down
Keep my hands in my pockets
Not to make a sound
For the blue and red downtown

[Chorus]
'Cause my baby left me in 2001 and I
Haven't seen the sun since he's been gone
All I do is watch the moon
