Lonely Man´s Wallet

Lonely Man´s Wallet

Exit (The)
(album: New Beat)

a lonely man smokes his last cigarette
as the cold breeze enters the bar
still afraid from what he is
there´s only so much gin can fix
i´ve written pages in the book
big enough for chapters
the hurt won´t leave when will it quit

i´m gonna throw it all away
so don´t try and stop me
i´m not me

and as the hours pass on by
a lonely heart beats on in time
living´s become only existing
and that´s just what people do
get in the car and drive on home
eight years becomes a lifetime
i´m gonna take this car off the side

they found his wallet in the wreck
an ace of clubs and ninety cents
i don´t want to tell the story of this tortured soul
but i see him every day
mirrors open up the room they say
i´m not me
