No Man's Land

This isn't the world I expected to find The end of an error Surrounded on all sides By barbed wire fences Tickets, and parking fines Wrong attitude girls Empty bottles of wine There are some nights I can drink the words away But most times They just won't behave No matter who it drives away (From no man's land) It's never over Just take it slower now You're in over your head Getting frantic For some way out of the trench Well it's a mess in my mind But that's all that I am Garbled orders And so quick to cancel plans So don't wait You'll never believe the things you say But it's alright Allow the love of the good ghost It won't get in the way (In no man's land) You're getting older It's getting colder and You're getting lost out here It's easy to kid yourself That nothing will ever change Another night in an empty house Where everybody knows your name Do you feel bo(u)lder now That you've jumped the ride Bloody minded Swimming against the tide You're waging a war Against yourself in fits and starts The last man standing In a field of broken hearts Well take it easy Don't go over the top tonight Forgive yourself Allow the love of the good ghost now And you'll be alright No man's land
