1
Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walkin' down
2
The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below
3
Following their footsteps through the neon darkened corridors
4
Of silent desperation never speaking to a soul
5
The poison air he's breathing has the dirty smell of dyin'
6
Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain
7
Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes
8
Of the clicking of the turn stops and the rattle of his chains
9
Oh she said Casey it's been so long since I've seen you
10
Here she said just a kiss to make a body smile
11
See she said I've put on new stocking just to please you
12
Lord she said Casey can you only stay a while
13
[ guitar ]
14
Casey leaves the underground and stops inside the Golden Crown
15
For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bones
16
Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
17
Who reach for anything they can to keep from goin' home
18
Standing in the corner Casey drinks his final bitter
19
Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by
20
Then he stumbles as he's leavin' and he wonders if the reason
21
Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye
22
Oh she said I suppose you seldom think about me
23
Now she said now that you've a family of your own
24
Still she said it's so blessed good to feel your body
25
Lord she said Casey it's a shame to be alone hmm
