What's the Use?

I don't know how
to keep the memories from
falling out
Of my head,
Bring a cleansweep bring a rope, please
But tie it round my
ears, leave the lumps that is
the batter in my head, The home run
it left me
wasted

Yes we're dreaming and we're
keeping it at arm's length
Pack it up, pack it out
It'll never come back- what's the use?

Yes we're dreaming and we're
keeping it at arm's length
Pack it up, pack it out
It'll never come back- what's the use?

In the fridge too many beers, the heat is slipping
from the cracks the green is creeping in
to the rooms that we never check
I taught you how to do your hair, you taught me
How to love again, despite all this...

Yes we're dreaming and we're
keeping it at arm's length
Pack it up, pack it out
It'll never come back- what's the use?

Yes we're dreaming and we're keeping it at arm's length
Pack it up, pack it out
It'll never come back- what's the use?

I'm screamin'-
Do you know what you've done? I
Can't be
Certain, oh-
Do you know
What you've done- cuz I
Can't be
Certain... and you

Said you're going in
But what will
Come out of it? You said-
Unless you claim it, it's not
Yours... even though you've
Given up
And I'm left here
Like the light at the edge of the
Empty lot

I'm slipping through the cracks in the sidewalk,
this city can eat its
heart out when I'm gone
Take another block, the faces even out, peering into them they all
Seem the same...

It will be too
hard to show you,
and I think it's
hard to know you,
so I'll have to
climb this fence, and
leave this yard for
ever once again...

Yes we're dreaming, and we're
Keeping it at arm's length-
Pack it up, pack it out
It'll never come back- what's the use?

What's the use...
What's the use?
What's the use...
What's the use?
What's the use
What's the use?
What's the
Use?
