lyrics
well i took one last drive down to boston
to see if i still feel anything
i took one last drive down to boston alone
and as i stared out across the river,
and my eyes rolled back in my head
i knew at last what it felt like to be dead
well she said "boy,
you worry about the worst things, you know"
so i put my thought inside a cage that fit just like a shell
while i listed places been to,
manhattan south of hell
it took everything i had to not be everything i've seen
well you knew just what i was
and i know just what you mean
guess i had to grow up sometime, i just didn't think it through
what else could i do when i'm just a shell of man
forced to lean on luck and left without a plan
if i spent my life in a hole
if i spent my life growing old
i'd be fine with it if i was just with you
to see if i still feel anything
i took one last drive down to boston alone
and as i stared out across the river,
and my eyes rolled back in my head
i knew at last what it felt like to be dead
well she said "boy,
you worry about the worst things, you know"
so i put my thought inside a cage that fit just like a shell
while i listed places been to,
manhattan south of hell
it took everything i had to not be everything i've seen
well you knew just what i was
and i know just what you mean
guess i had to grow up sometime, i just didn't think it through
what else could i do when i'm just a shell of man
forced to lean on luck and left without a plan
if i spent my life in a hole
if i spent my life growing old
i'd be fine with it if i was just with you
