[Intro] / / [Verse] This house that I live in has no reason            This house that I sleep in has no purpose It has a bed and a few old chairs Three flights up two flights of stairs       But it has no reason [Refrain] Then someone shot through the tyre swing The dogs barked and bayed in the winter and spring And the ivy that hung now sadly clings To a dying season [Hook] And I cry at night when the lights go out And the green eyes fuse and the full moon shouts From road maps and red lines to lipstick lies And when the lights go out it’s tough to survive [Verse] This man holds a hand that shows a tremble This man that I live in bears his faults He has a heart and a well worn soul Ten years a slave to Rock And Roll         But he has to tremble [Refrain] Then someone shot through the tyre swing The dogs barked and bayed in the winter and spring And the ivy that hung now sadly clings To a dying season [Hook] And I cry at night when the lights go out And the green eyes fuse and the full moon shouts From road maps and red lines to lipstick lies And when the lights go out it’s tough to survive And when the lights go out it’s tough to survive /
