World Without Song

Maybe the angels ain't flying tonight
They grounded the planes even grounded the light
The borders are closed and the bars are all shut
And there's no place to go for a man in a rut

Down and out on the lower east side
A man with no work still has to provide
And the demons get louder when there's nowhere to hide
And your nerves start to slip and your thoughts start to slide

It ain't no surprise everyone knew
The first thought on my mind I wished it wasn't true
If they say it's your fault they're only half wrong
It's the price that we pay for a world without song

Maybe the angels ain't flying tonight
They grounded the planes even grounded the light
The borders are closed and the bars are all shut
And there's no place to go for a man in a rut

So tell me why did you hurt? I won't ask you what's wrong
I just can't live in the world without song
Maybe somewhere everything is alright
But without you this town feels too quiet tonight
