As the bell rang
to indicate the start
of a new day,
Dunstan made secret
eyes at the back
of Dee's ponytailed
head, and ached with
an unrequited longing.

He slowly pulled back the hammer
with his thumb until the revolver made
a click that could be heard for miles
in the still, cold Minnesota night.

I am feeling so lonely
in my heart today
we got nothing to say
or do anyway
I am feeling so old
in my heart today
broken time
no more baby
I can't stay here
with you

I am feeling
nothing
I am feeling

I am feeling so poor
in my heart today
we got nothing to say
or do anyway
I just want to go far faraway
but not with you
by my side baby
I will find a new life
someplace
and make everything better
I don't love you any more


I am feeling so empty
in my heart today
we got nothing to say
or share anymore
I can't find any trace of love
which I could build something
lasting and good upon
there is really nothing
left inside

I am feeling so insecure
in my heart today
we got nothing more
to give or receive
and I really doubt
that we ever will find
a way back
so therefor it is best for us
that I walk away today


I am feeling so sad
in my heart today
we got nothing to say
or do anyway
I am feeling bad
but the best for us to do
is to go separate ways
since there is no more
love to be found
I don't care no more

I am feeling so cold
in my heart today
we got nothing to say
or do anyway
I am only feeling gloomy
and there is nothing else to say
our relationship is truly doomed
but there is nothing
we can do
I am feeling nothing
I am truly sorry

It is a tragedy
but you cannot see
what life has turned you into
it is a tragedy
because I once loved you
you were my girl
and now
no one wants you

Searching for something
that can not be found
the only way is down

It is a tragedy
but you cannot see
what your lifestyle
has been doing to you
it is a tragedy
because people used to like you
and now they hate
the smallest sight of you

It is a tragedy
but you cannot see
what you have done to yourself
you thought you were a queen
and now you are locked
in the worst of dreams

It is a tragedy
that no one wants to let you out
but you can blame only yourself
that nobody wants to help you again
you have no friends left
the only way is down
you are burned completely out
from all that speed
and all those fancy colorful pills
and all those men
you went home with

Sincerity is something
that we don't need
because no one is capable
of telling the truth
we are too afraid
to give ourselves
to someone else
who can you ask
when no one wants to know

Who can you tell
when nobody
believes it anyway

Sincerity is something
that no one knows
but people have heard
that there was a time
many years ago
if you looked high and low
and were lucky
you could find one or two alive
that would believe in you
but now there is
no one to be found

Sincerity is something
that we once had
but we did not understand
what we had in our hands
so we threw it away
but we need it so today
because nobody can come close
to anyone no more
everybody lives behind
bolted doors
waiting for something
good to happen
but nothing will ever change
because sincerity has gone away
pray that you will find it
some wonderful day
so you can get a good
and normal life
that you can be real proud of
until the day you die
and reach the sky
