I walked to the corner of 10th street today
the clock whispered 30 past 4
stairs to the subway, uptown on the A-train
but i'm still goin' nowhere.
ten million faces, they all look the same to me
the doors they continue to slide,
at every station is screaming your name to me
with nowhere to hide.

i can be the hero that you always needed
when it all falls down
breathe in, breathe deep
run with me, and we can leave the world we know behind
we can make it this time.

the park was exceedingly lonely today
and i've still got nowhere to be
both arms are empty, i like it that way before
but i see you everywhere.
never did get it, how i'm so attached to you
your voice still resounds in my head
so try and forget it, the hell that you walked me through
wanting to hate you and love you instead

a stranger once asked me if i knew the lord
he said angels were everywhere
i told him that Jesus was my new best friend
then i showed him your picture,
"my angel's right there."
