Uptown blues
Nowhere to run
I hid out in the basement waiting till all was said and done

Moonlight comes
No one to hold
Am I being insincere when I air my problems to the world

Cos I've been praying for the one thing I can't have
What I missed when things went bad
And how to tell my old man

I've been drowning far from the banks of my hometown
Without a hand to pull me out
Slowly floating my way

And I only speak in clichés because I can't think anymore
Months to forget, life to remember
Days that I'm never getting back

And lately I've been staring at the space between the news
Holding on tight, watching the clock tick down from dusk until noon

Cos I've been praying for the one thing I can't have
What I missed when things went bad
And how to tell my old man

I've been drowning far from the banks of my hometown
Without a hand to pull me out
Slowly floating my way down

Cos I'm not a new man
Yeah it's true
But I got a new life
But I still miss you and it hurts
Yeah it's true
