Me & Cinderella by Magnolia
Me & Cinderella lyrics
Verse 1:
So long ago, I don't remember when.
That's when they say I lost my only friend.
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease.
As I listened through the cemetery trees.
Verse 2:
I seen the sun coming up at the funeral at dawn.
The long broken arm of human law.
Now it always seemed such a waste.
She always had a pretty face.
So I wondered why she hung around this place.
Chorus:
Hey, come on try a little.
Nothing last forever.
There's got to be something better than in the middle.
Me & Cinderella, we put it all together.
We can drive it home with one headlight.
Verse 3:
She said it's cold.
It feels like Independence Day and I can't break away from this parade.
But there's got to be an opening somewhere here in front of me.
Through this maze of ugliness and greed.
And I seen the sun up ahead, at the county line bridge.
Saying all there's good and nothingness is dead.
We'll run until she's out of breath.
She ran until there's nothing left.
She hit the end. It's just her window ledge.
Chorus:
Hey, come on try a little.
Nothing last forever.
There's got to be something better than in the middle.
Me & Cinderella, we put it all together.
We can drive it home with one headlight.
Verse 4:
Well this place is old, it feels just like a beat up truck.
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn.
Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes.
This place is always such a mess.
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn.
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else.
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same.
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dying dreams I think her
Death.
It must be killing me.
Chorus:
Hey, come on try a little.
Nothing last forever.
There's got to be something better than in the middle.
Me & Cinderella, we put it all together.
We can drive it home with one headlight.
