On a day I was alone I was walking down the street In the valley of the shadow of death And I saw a girl She was watering her flowers Drinking beer and smoking her last cigarette And as we talked I knew she was something else Something that this place couldn't understand And as we talked I knew she was something else Something that I wanted for myself On a dark rundown street I wrestled with my god He was sitting at a table in the trees He asked if I knew his name I said a name is just a name And a name it doesn't make you what you are And as we talked I knew he was something else Something that this place couldn't understand And as we talked I knew he was something else Something that I wanted for myself Sometimes you see the life You never knew you didn't have Sometimes you never see the good For only seeing the bad And sometimes you see what no one sees When you're honest with yourself Sometimes you see that life is something else Life is something else Life is something else
