Half Light II (No Celebration)

[Verse 1] Now that San Francisco's gone I guess I'll just pack it in Wanna wash away my sins In the presence of my friends [Verse 2] You and I, we head back east To find a town where we can live Even in the half light We can see that something's gotta give [Verse 3] When we watched the markets crash The promises we made were torn And my parents sent for me From out west where I was born [Verse 4] Some people say We've already lost But they're afraid to pay the cost For what we've lost Pay the cost for what we've lost [Verse 5] Now that you have left me here I will never raise my voice All the diamonds you have here In this home which has no life [Verse 6] Oh, this city's changed so much Since I was a little child Pray to God I won't live to see The death of everything that's wild [Verse 7] Though we knew this day would come Still it took us by surprise In this town where I was born I now see through a dead man's eyes [Outro] One day they will see it's long gone
