The Broadways - Broadway And Briar lyrics

rate me

i wait for my friends to get off work and stand and smoke

and a crazy man sits next to me

looking down at a pile of his broken dreams

and he won't even look at me i'm still young

and have so far to go

and he says to a passerby with a sad sad smile,

"does anyone know?"

"who do i have to kill to see a familiar face in this town?

it seems like all my old friends have moved awa y"

i feel like i know what he means

will 10 years go by and no one remember my name?

i dont want it to be that way

but it happened to this guy and i'm exactly the same as him

but i'm young and have so far to go

and i've seen what happens to pe ople

it's just years and years of letting lonliness grow he said -

..he means youth doesn't last forever and neither do dreams.
