I don't care no more I've seen the cities on the coast

I watched the seasons come and bounce right off the street

meet me down by the burned out shell of a town

and I'll take you out for something to drink



I want to fall asleep somewhere warm and not afraid



we were thrown out running

we were all so young

we were frozen over and bent like wire

I watched the shadows break through a hole in the wall

and never made a sound until they lit the fire



pull me close with arms of steel and put me in my place

I want to fall asleep somewhere warm and not afraid



I'll be there when the morning isn't so concrete

and the condolences aren't faltering in the court yard

thinking cold with your mother's eyes opened half

i'll be the one with the next ten years stretched on my face



pull me close with arms of steel and put me in my place

hold me close and tell me why, wear it on your sleeve

pull me close with arms of steel and put me in my place

I want to fall asleep somewhere warm and not afraid
