One Last Match

The leaves
The leaves have all fallen
And the days
The days are much shorter
And the wind
Will chill you down to the bone
Like it's telling you
You don't belong

Now the streets are barren and empty
And your heart is running on fumes
And the wind
Will chill you down to the bone
Don't close your eyes
If you don't want to go home

Can you feel your soul
Evaporating out of
Your mouth with every breath
You came in search of life
You found only death
To greet you at her open gate

Darling close your eyes
It's so cold tonight
One last match to light
Until you're home
'Til you're home

A life so unremarkable and brief
Your smiling corpse found frozen on the street
No passers-by lament
You're just another statistic, inconsequent
Their own lives move too fast

Can you feel your soul
Rising with the smoke
As that last fire goes out
You deserved the world
You got nothing but scorn
Disgust and misery

Darling close your eyes
It's so cold tonight
One last match to light
Until you're home

Darling close your eyes
It's so cold tonight
One last match to light
Until you're home
'Til you're home
