Tell your friends and tell your folks
That you ain't comin' home
Tell your ma and tell your pa
That you don't wanna die alone
There's a hole in this town
There's a crack in the road
There's a tear in her gown
I got more than what I need
I'm gonna give back my heart
To the dust and the weeds
Gonna be far away
The alley sleepers know your name
They know your not like them
The city's creepin' through your veins
It poisoned every limb
There's a hole in your chest
There's a crack in the sky
There's a bird in your nest
You got more than what you need
Your gonna give back your heart
To the dust and the weeds
Gonna be far away
There's a hole in this town
There's a crack in the road
And there's a tear in her gown
I got more than what I need
I'm gonna give back my heart
To the dust and the weeds
Gonna be far away
