"So long ago I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
They said she died easy of a broken-heart disease
I listen through the cemetary trees

I see the sun coming up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now it always seemed such a waste
She always had a pretty face
I wondered why she hung round this place

Come on try a little
Nothing lasts forever
There's got to be something better
Than in the middle
Me and Cinderella
Put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

She said it's cold
It feels like independence day
And I can't break away from this parade
But there's got to be an opening somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed

I seen the sun up ahead at the county line bridge
Saying all there's good and nothing else is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothing left
She hit the end--it's just her window ledge

Come on try a little
Nothing lasts forever
There's got to be something better
Than in the middle
Me and Cinderella
Put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

This place is old
It feels just like a beat-up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn

It smells of cheap wine and cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same

But somewhere here inbetween the city walls of dying dreams
I think her death it must be killing me

Come on try a little
Nothing lasts forever
There's got to be something better
Than in the middle
Me and Cinderella
Put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight"
