NEIGHBORHOOD
Light blue flash from a cigarette
Don’t worry now if you haven’t yet
Dead string buzzing on a blond guitar
One eye closer to a distant star
Laughed from the moment you came around
Laughed at the devil as he pulled you down
Didn’t see it coming now I realize
I watched you burn right in front of my eyes
Sometimes a letter set aside
Sometimes an angel barely alive
Sometimes a rumor don’t sound so good
They’re searching the neighborhood
Found your words across my screen
Black and white and no in between
Should’ve read your letter when I said I would
Wondrin’ right now would it have done any good
Sometimes a letter set aside
Sometimes an angel barely alive
Sometimes a rumor don’t sound so good
They’re searching the neighborhood
Mystery rain from the serious sky
Folding our hands we pray by and by
Should’ve seen it coming but I just couldn’t see
Heart and soul crashing down on me
Light blue flash from a cigarette
Don’t smoke now if you haven’t yet
Dead string buzzing on this blonde guitar
Close my eyes to a distant star
Sometimes a letter set aside
Sometimes an angel buried alive
Sometimes a rumor don’t sound so good
They’re searching the neighborhood
They’re searching the neighborhood
Running out of neighborhood
