It Must Get Lonely

I'm a raw nerve in the sunlight After two weeks in the dark If you've gotta tell me you're not using It's probably 'cause you are Well I saw you there, just a block off the sea You're a rowhome on an empty street The others have been torn down You're the last one standing It must get lonely The grey starts to swallow grey Where the sky meets the Irish Sea Like a suit that's been to too many funerals And starts fraying at the seams I saw a bag of clementines Split wide open on an English street The contrast made me feel so goddamn dizzy Well I saw you there, just a block off the sea You're a rowhome on an empty street The others have been torn down You're the last one standing It must get obvious enough That I'm not ever gonna change It must get obvious enough That I'm the one who stays I'm a specter in the dim light On the flowers by the grave In the Montmartre in Paris Where the crows seem to know my name And they left footprints in the snow Along the fence on Palmer Street Cigarette butts on the headstones You left for me Well I saw you there, just a block off the sea You're a rowhome on an empty street The others have been torn down You're the last one standing It must get obvious enough That I'm not ever gonna change It must get obvious enough That I'm the one who stays It must get obvious enough That you're not ever gonna change It must get obvious enough That you're the one who stays But it must get lonely It must get lonely (It must get lonely) It must get lonely (It must get lonely)
