Goodnight Nobody - Clem Snide

Mary, oh, Mary

It was a beautiful night

I crossed the freeway in just my bare feet

The blacktop was still warm by the vending machine

And all the trees used for naming the street

Mary, oh, Mary

His eyes drawn by the shade

Like a bird with a nest on its mind

And all the leaves and all the twigs stuck together by spit

From your kiss and a very sweet wine

Mary, oh, Mary

I guess I was drawn by the light

The light from the cars going by

And I know you think I’m always running away but

Don’t you see, to be free, the me needs to die in our mind
