she boards a one way train she's leaving home again maybe this time she'll be strong enough tears fill up her eyes as her kids wave their goodbyes maybe this time they'll be strong enough finally its fare-thee-well thirty-three, she's been through hell its time to ramble on she takes off all her clothes the petals stripped off of a rose the pain is finally gone and somewhere way up in the night the moon reflects a brilliant light and she smiles because she knows that she is free a lonely man shaving in the sink as he slowly sips his drink he remembers how he used to be the numbness in his soul runs deep blacker and blacker, week by week he remembers how things used to be his kids are grown, his wife's long gone he stumbles home then drinks til dawn he won't escape today he drops his shoes onto the floor can't fight these demons anymore he finally falls asleep and somewhere way up in the night the moon reflects a brilliant light and he cries because he knows he can't be free
