I'm feeling lost in my home town And there's no place I want to settle down 'Cause I am lost without a love Or an answer from above Does someone know an easier way out? And in my darkest hour of despair I'm only glad she wasn't there To see me as the lights went out And all that I could think about Was where she was and does she really care? But Billy died of a broken heart Couldn't bear to be apart From the one he loved too much Yeah Billy died of a broken heart Couldn't bear to be apart From the one he loved too much And when I break out of this iron cast I'll lay all of my ghosts in the past Like friends that I thought I knew Where were you when I needed you? And lovers that had torn me apart It seems the more I chase the further you run Faster than a bullet from a gun That shot me through this heart of stone Now all that's left is skin and bones I tell you this is the end for me 'Cause Billy died of a broken heart Couldn't bear to be apart From the one he loved too much Yeah Billy died of a broken heart Couldn't bear to be apart From the one he loved too much
