Lyrics — “No Tomorrow” by @germancowboy

The neon sign buzzes, flickering red and blue I got a cigarette burn on the side of my shoe I’ve been walking this block for thirty years, baby Since I was sixteen and didn't know the danger, didn't know the fable The wind cuts through my dress, the cold cuts through my bone I’m trading my body for a pocket full of stone I know every pothole, every stench, every face in the crowd I’m a ghost in the city, living in the shadow of a cloud. But the traffic is heavy, the horns are a-blaring Scared to death that a car door is gonna be parading Past my ribs, past my heart, crushing me flat Just another statistic, just another crack in the mat. 'Cause there's No Tomorrow in my pocket Just a coin that I spend before I sleep I got a story for every scar on my skin But where is the love? Where is the tenderness? I'm just a warm body for a lonely mess Yeah, I got No Tomorrow. There’s the guy with the ring, the one who says "I'm lonely" He pays me five bucks to hold his greasy hand, to say he's not lonely He talks about his ex-wife, about his mortgage, his stock While I'm trying to hide the fact that I'm bored to death and lost And then there's the freak, the one with the strange request The one who wanted me to wear a dress made out of the best Lace and leather, beads and bones, acting like a nun While he whispered dirty wishes about how he wants to run. But the dangers are real, the knives in the dark I'm lucky I got my teeth, I'm lucky I got my spark One wrong turn, one bad date, one drink that tastes like poison And I'm down on the pavement, broken and ruinous. 'Cause there's No Tomorrow in my pocket Just a coin that I spend before I sleep I got a story for every scar on my skin But where is the love? Where is the tenderness? I'm just a warm body for a lonely mess Yeah, I got No Tomorrow. Sometimes I look in the mirror, see the wrinkles starting to show See the girl I used to be, the one that used to glow I used to dream of a white dress, a church, a family Now I dream of a warm bed, but not for eternity Just a moment of peace, a hand on my face Before the sun comes up and I have to replace The smile with a mask, the hope with a sigh And walk out into the night, underneath the sky. The sun is coming up, the streetlights are dying I'm heading back to my room, where the smell of gin is lying I got an empty bottle, a bruised up heart Just another veteran walking the dangerous part No money in my pocket, no man in my bed Just the empty echo of the words that I said. Yeah, there's No Tomorrow in my pocket Just a coin that I spend before I sleep I got a story for every scar on my skin But where is the love? Where is the tenderness? I'm just a warm body for a lonely mess Yeah, I got No Tomorrow. No Tomorrow... Just the night... Just the night...
