Knocking On The Sky Lyrics

Time is tight Time is running on down

In this sleepy dried-up old little town

Nothing but dust building up on the window displays

They slow roll that hearse now every damn day

The young ones moved and the old ones quit

So dry everyday now you can't even spit

Faith slipped out like dust through the cracks

Hope died here a long time back

And I was left crumbling in the storm

I'm knocking on the sky

Can anybody hear me?

Knocking on the sky

Does anybody see?

Knocking on the sky

I'm here all alone

The clock in the tower has ground to a halt

A distant mirage on the baked asphalt

Life here has been one slow beat down

Got pieces of rust where there once was a crown

There's nothing to save, nothing to pack

The dry river bed is like an alligators back

Dust devils dance and play in the heat

I'm the last fool standing on Main Street

And I was left crumbling in the storm

I'm knocking on the sky

Can anybody hear me?

Knocking on the sky

Does anybody see?

Knocking on the sky

I'm here all alone
