lyrics

who
who, at the close of day
who would even know my name
who would even look my way
oh even when the walls come down
who would even cross that mound

who would take a risk on me
started from the bottom and ended in obscurity
who would take a risk on me

plain
the hours simply have no end
when fingertips are on the mend
and sadness is your only friend
no
it's not a conscious thing
but when it lets the demons in
they drag you down, oh so far down

and hard-won is the way back up
bitter is the wine and you're drinking from the largest cup
who would stake their name on me
a sordid mess of dead ends and wasted opportunities

who
would take a risk on me
