Sun sets 'cross the ocean
A thousand miles from anywhere
My pocketbook and my heart both just got stolen
And that sun acts like she don't even care
The wind blows cold when you reach the top
It feels like someone's face is stuck to the bottom of your my shoe
I got a plastic Jesus, a cordless telephone for every corner of my room
Seems everybody but you is telling me what to do
CHORUS But I've been down so long
Oh, it can't be longer still
I've been down so long
That the end must be drawing near
I look to everybody but me to answer my prayers
'Til I saw an angel in a bathroom who said she saw nothing worth saving
Anywhere
Blind man on the corner said it's simple
Like flipping a coin
Don't matter what side it lands on if it's someone else's dime
CHORUS
I take a trip, I catch a train, I catch a plane
I got a ticket in my hand
And then a man takes my money
And like cattle we all stand
But we've been down so long
Oh, it can't be longer still
We've been down so long
The end must be . . .
I know the end must be . . .
Oh, I know the end must be drawing near
