Broadway

Chorus: 

Broadway is dark tonight 

A little bit weaker than you used to be 

Broadway is dark tonight 

See the young man sitting 

In the old man’s bar 

Waiting for his turn to die 


The cowboy kills the rock star 

And Friday night’s gone too far 

The dim light hides the years 

On all the faded girls 


Forgotten but not gone 

You drink it off your mind 

You talk about the world 

Like it’s someplace that you’ve been 


You see you’d love to run home 

But you know you ain’t got one 

Cause you’re livin’ in a world 

That you’re best forgotten around here 


Chorus 


You choke down all your anger 

Forget your only son 

You pray to statues when you sober up for fun 

Your anger don’t impress me 

The world slapped in your face 

It always rains like hell on the losers day parade 


You see you’d love to run home 

But you know you ain’t got one 

’Cause you’re livin’ in a world that you’re best forgotten 

And when you’re thinkin’ of a joke 

And nobody’s gonna listen 

To the one small point 

I know they been missin’ round here 


Chorus 


You see you’d love to run home 

But you know you ain’t got one 

’Cause you’re livin’ in a world 

That you’re best forgotten 

When you’re thinkin’ of a joke 

And nobody’s gonna listen 

To the one small point 

I know they been missin’ round here 


Round here


Chorus
