In a Razor Town - Live

In a razor town you take whoever you think you can keep around

There's an echoed sound, that permeates the sidewalk where she shuffles 'round

It's a big machine, it used to be the avenue of changing dreams

And she's a lonely thing, sweeping up the glitter while she pulls the strings

Take a long last look, before she turns to stone

What the last man took, what was long long gone

The way it used to be, I wasn't there to see it working properly

Now it seems to me, both of you are suffering

You know I've heard her say, you're the only reason she's alive today

I just turned away, thinking maybe she was right

So say your last goodbye, make it short and sweet

There ain't no way for you to fly

With her hanging on your feet

♪

Let her go out if she wants to

If she don't, go out yourself

Don't take sorry for an answer

Unless you really want what's left

'Cause in a razor town, the only thing that matters tends to bring you down

There's no way around, but maybe you can barrel through

Because a razor ain't no good for you
