No One Fell Asleep Alone
Brett Sparks / Rennie Sparks
I saw a deer limp across
A supermarket parking lot
Last night as I drove home from work
Old men sleeping in the dirt
Abandoned buildings full of smoke
Children jumping from the roof
Cars in ditches leaking blood
Rivers full of drowning bugs
But as the sun fell between
The leaning buildings and the street
The moment came 'tween day and night
Painted soft in golden light
The crooked street shining gold
And no one fell asleep alone
No one fell asleep alone
No one fell asleep alone
