Lyrics

Where I Could Once Stand
Words and Music by Rob Niemi


There ain?t no stars in the sky tonight
There ain?t no moon overhead
Just a black sky, looking down on me
As I lay in this pool of red

There ain?t no one I can talk to
Ain?t no one who really understands
Now my whole body?s turning black and blue
There?s blood all over my hands
Goodbye

Youth seems so long gone now
My dreams have just withered away
I thought they would all come true somehow
But I guess that was yesterday

Show me to where the dove flies
And no one hurts anymore
Where no one fights and no one cries
And where my spirit can soar

There ain?t no stars in the sky tonight
There ain?t no moon overhead
Just a black sky, looking down on me
Looking down on this life I?ve led

There ain?t no one I can talk to
Ain?t no one who really understands
Now my whole body?s turning black and blue
As I lay on the ground where I could once stand
