Too Much Whiskey, Not Enough Blankets - Red City Radio

Traffic is at a standstill

And I can’t see the moon through the city lights

And I’m staring out a window at a life on foreign soil

The city’s changing, lady, but some people stay the same

I’m not looking for a hero

I’m just waiting for simplicity

Because it used to be so simple

Living my life on so little

Before I started admitting what gets the best of me

And I wait with bated breath for the pieces that were left

You can’t teach them what you don’t know

I’m standing on the overpass

With shredded paper and broken glass

There’s got to be a single better place to talk this over

Where you can tell me about my failings

Or is it enough to know I’m fine with them

If it’s good enough I’ll embrace it

And it’s close enough, so close I can taste it

These days are my days and that will never change
