I Ddon't know when I nDoticed life was lCife at my expCense 
The Bmwords of my hBmeart lined up likeGm prisoners on a fGmence 
My Ddreams came in like nDeedy childrenC tugging at my sleCeve 
I G/Bsaid I have no wG/Bay of feediAsusng you, so A7leave 
 
C9  But there was a tC9ime I asked my Gfather for a dGollar 
D  And he gave it a tD/Cen dollar Bm7/4raiseBm7/4 
C9  And when I neC9eded my Gmother and I cGalled her 
D  She stayed with mD/Ce for dEmaysEm  A7sus  A7 
 
Now Gsomeone's on the tGelephone, Gmdesperate in his pGmain 
DSomeone's on the D/Cbathroom floor,Bm doing her coBmcaine 
C9Someone's got his fC9inger on the bGutton in some Groom 
DNo one can convD/Cince me we aren'tF7 gl tacet  uttons for our doom 
But I trE7/Gied to E7/Gmake this place mGmaj7y place;  Gmaj7  I asked for providence to 
C9smile upon mC9e with its sweet fGac tacet e;      Yeah, but I'll tell you: 
 
My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark 
And I, I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark 
My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark 
And I, I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark 
 
Maybe there's no haven in this world for tender age 
My heart beat like the wings of wild birds in a cage 
My greatest hope, my greatest cause to grieve 
And my heart flew from its cage, and it bled upon my sleeve 
 
The cries of passion were like wounds that needed healing 
I couldn't hear them for the thunder 
I was half the naked distance between hell and heaven's ceiling 
And it almost pulled me under 
 
Now someone's on the telephone, desperate in his pain 
Someone's on the bathroom floor, doing her cocaine 
Someone's got his finger on the button in some room 
No one can convince me we aren't gluttons for our doom 
But I tried to make this place my place; I asked for providence to 
smile upon me with its sweet face; Yeah, but I'll tell you: 
 
My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark 
And I, I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark 
My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark 
And I, I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark 
My plC9ace is of theC9 sun and this placGe tacet is of the dark 
And I, I do not feel the romance; I will not be a pawn 
For the Gmprince of slowly darkness any longer
