Schwa Lyrics

One Sad Song Tonight

Lyricist: Eric Lanese
Vocalist: Eric Lanese

Well I got pretty good at behaving real bad
Staying out half the night , doin things that ain't right, 
I lost the best thing I had
But there was always the stage and the lights, that long uphill climb
And it's a sick fucking joke that everything that ain't broke, 
still ain't worth a dime
 
but everyone bears a cross, and everyone has to fight, 
and there's only time for one sad song tonight
 
I remember the day that the wheels all fell off
There was sparks there was noise and lots of smoke from them boys
As the thing sputtered and coughed
But after darkness there's light 
And the truth follows lies
And relief when the wool is finally pulled, up and off of our eyes
 
but everyone bears a cross, and everyone has to fight, 
and there's only time for one sad song tonight
 
now I'm sick as a dog, lyin' on the floor
because I broke my own heart, the moment that I broke yours
 
but everyone bears a cross, and everyone has to fight, 
and there's only time for one sad song tonight
