Running with the streetlights,
Laughing in the grave
He swears he's gonna give it up, it's never gonna be enough
I just wanna be there when you're all alone, thinkin' 'bout a better day,
When you had it in your bones

This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end

I see you in the evening, sitting on your throne.
Prayin' with a fireball, and posted up against the wall
I just wanna hold you, take you by your hands and tell you that you're good enough,
And tell you that it's gonna be tough

This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
'Cause I ain't got a home

Runnin' from the streetlights
Shinin' on a grave
Once you had the good stuff, never gonna fill you up
I wanna be the one who gives them all the world
And gives em all the feelin' of it, just a little taste of it

This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
'Cause I ain't got a home
I'll forever roam, no I ain't got a home
Out there all alone
I ain't got a home
I'll forever roam
No I ain't got a home
I'll forever roam
I ain't got a home

Running with the street lights
Laughing at the grave
He swears he's gonna give it up
It's never gonna be enough
I just wanna be there
When you're all alone
Thinking about a better day
When you had it in your bones
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
I see you in the evening
Sitting on your throne
You're playing with a fireball
And post it up against the wall
I just wanna hold you
Take you by your hand
And tell you that you're good enough
And tell you that it's gonna be tough
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
'Cause I ain't got a home
Running from the streetlights
Shining on her grave
Once you had the good stuff
Never gonna fill you up
I wanna be the one who
Gives them my world
And gives them all the feeling of it
Just a little taste of it
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
'Cause I ain't got a home
I'll forever roam
No, I ain't got a home
I'll forever roam
'Cause I ain't got a home
I'll forever roam
No, I ain't got a home
I'll forever roam
I ain't got a home

Sixteen years ago this month I lost my baby brother Neil. It was hard for me to face the fact that he died alone of what was ruled an accidental overdose of valium. He struggled his whole life due to his dyslexia and it is believed he honestly didn't understand what he was taking. I had barely met him two & a half years prior to his death. We have the same father but different mothers. He knew his entire life that he had an older brother, yet I had never known of him. He tracked me down and the day we met we instantly knew each other, it was an amazing moment and feeling. But over the the 2 and a half years to follow he would go from friends house to friends house and sometimes to unknown places(if they weren't actually street bridges) to stay, and that's where I know his drug use began. When I was informed of his passing a part of me died that day, and was never to return. The year that this song came out, was the year that I was able to grieve. This song has a place in my heart that holds his memory near me and let's me have my moment April of every year to remember him and yes let a few more tears go.
