One-Eyed Doll - Cinderblock Lyrics

Locked in my room
Hiding under the bed
Can't seem to quiet the screaming in my head

Daddy is drinking
He's angry again
Crawl out the window
He'll be out cold by ten

Walking down town
Singing songs to myself
Wishing that I could be somebody else

A man on the sidewalk who's been there since dawn
Asks for a dime and he sings me this song

This town isn't big enough for the two of us
This town isn't big enough for the two of us
This town isn't big enough for the two of us
So goodbye

Back at the trailer
It's quiet and dim
Daddy's asleep
With a bottle of gin

See my reflection
In the mirror again
Bruises and scars
How it hurts to be ten

This town isn't big enough for the two of us
This town isn't big enough for the two of us
This town isn't big enough for the two of us
So goodbye

From the shelves that he made
I take a cinderblock
Lift it up high
Such a heavy rock

Above daddy's head
I hold my liberty
As I let it drop,
This is what I sing

This town isn't big enough for the two of us
This town isn't big enough for the two of us
This town isn't big enough for the two of us
So goodbye
