Nobody's home again, oh and the nightbirds are sleeping so soft
Every car like a corpse in the parking lot
And the traffic light's evergreen, or so it seems
Little bed, little rest, little sandman to
Slip a truth tear in my eye, oh winter, goodbye
But oh hell, hopeless night, what's become of my life
My love's gone away again, oh, and my head's like Beelzebub's rage
Little fire ever doused in a cage
And the howl of Job is screaming true in every blue
Little god, what have i done to you? To
Slip a truth tear in my eye, oh winter, goodbye
But oh hell, hopeless night, what's become of my life
Mmm, and they've locked up our angels in lecture halls
They've prisoned our poets away
Oh, love be brave, world be saved
Nobody's home again, mmm and the woodland's a rapture to see
Little branch, little twig, little me
And the river's a tango away every day
But the ice, but the time, anyway, so
Slip a truth tear in my eye, oh, my soul is yours tonight
But oh hell, hopeless night, what's become of my mind
