Don't tell me how much it hurts



When you're only wasted or coming back down



Trying hard to suss out which one is worse



Your dreams or the cold light of morning



Last night the cat dragged you home



And now you're shambles over the floor



Your shaking fingers and old skin and bone



Once more a little worse for the living



How you end up where you at



Well the moon only knows it



So let it guide you back



Light your way



Get yourself together son



Get on home



Cause it don't get no easier



The farther you roam



Some people spin you a long, long yarn



Put on so freely



Come on so strong



Ply your affection with criminal charm



Come around and clean you out while you're sleeping



Oh, you pretty foot



With your hair hanging down



One day your blinders will biock out the sun



There may be daylight



But it's way across town



Right now it's just the wee hours creeping



How you end up where you at



Well the moon only knows it



So let it guide you back



Light your way



Get yourself together son



Get on home



Cause it don't get no easier



The farther you roam



Speaking a language that no one knows



Like throwing darts into empty space



Under the streetlight with blood on your clothes



Once more a little worse for the living



How you end up where you at



Well the moon only knows it



So let it guide you back



Light your way



Get yourself together son



Get on home



Cause it don't get no easier



The farther you roam
