In a razor town you take whoever you think you can keep around
And there's an echoed sound that permeates that sidewalk where she shuffles round
It's a big machine, used to be the avenue of changing dreams
And she's a lonely thing, sweeping up the glitter while she pulls the strings

Take a long last look before she turns to stone

And what the last man took, and what was long long gone

The way it used to be, I wasn't there to see it working properly
And now it seems to me that both of you were suffering
You know I've heard her say that you're the only reason she's alive today
And I just turned away, thinking maybe she was right

So say your last goodbyes, make it short and sweet

There ain't no way for you to fly with her hanging on your feet

Let her go out if she wants to
F C
And if she don't go out yourself
F Am
Don't take sorry for an answer
F G
Unless you really want what's left

Cause in a razor town the only thing that matters tends to bring you down
And there's no way around, but maybe we can barrel through
