Verse 1: There are songs that birds don't sing to people There are secrets that keep right through to the end There are heroes who hide until forever And I'm singing this song for one of them Verse 2: He's the man that you passed on the road there The one with his life on the loose Going either somewhere or nowhere Going without me, without you Chorus: For he is this world's constant orphan Traveling out his lone time Living on apples from orchards Dying from grapes on the vine Verse 3: You can find him in big city winters Down where the mission bell cries And sorrow echoes through summer As he tries to close all his eyes Verse 4: You can find him in Pittsburgh in Christmas You can find him in Buffalo in June And he knows all the backroads between them Like the gypsy knows the moon Verse 5: And it's route 22 all over again Stick your thumb out and try to look like somebody's friend Look strong at the man, gentle at the girl And puzzled at the rest of the world Chorus. Living on apples from orchards Dying from grapes on the vine

Life goes on when the lights go out All things up gotta come back down I'll end up strange if I don't go crazy first Life goes on when the lights go down, uh, uh I need more than just dreams To take me out of this feelin' Need more than just tears To fill this glass back to half And I'm sore from tattoos I shoulda known wouldn't heal me And I'm findin' some peace In startin' wars with myself Life goes on Life goes on No free will without the choice How you gonna scream without the voice? I can't think around the noise It gets hard to avoid It all gets harder to avoid No free will without the choice How you gonna scream without the voice? I can't think around the noise Life goes on when the lights go out All things up gotta come back down I'll end up strange if I don't go crazy first But life goes on when the lights go out, uh, uh I need more than just dreams To take me out of this feeling Need more than just tears To fill this glass back to half And I'm sore from tattoos I shoulda known wouldn't heal me And I'm finding some peace In starting wars with myself Life goes on Life goes on, yeah No free will without the choice How you gonna scream without the voice? I can't think around the noise It gets hard to avoid It all gets harder to avoid No free will without the choice How you gonna scream without the voice? I can't think around the noise Meet me after midnight Crawl up on the rooftop Candles burning up like stars in every sky Keep me in your thoughts like Words we try to live by Verbalizing something hardest to describe No free will without the choice How you gonna scream without the voice? I can't think around the noise It gets hard to avoid It all gets harder to avoid No free will without the choice How you gonna scream without the voice? I can't think around the noise Life goes on Life goes on
