There's a shadow hanging heavy There's a cold chill in my bones It's a steep road, high and weary It's a long, long way from home But I will not shut my eyes No, I will not fall silent Canary in the mine Oh I will, honey I will I will sing I will sing There's a madness in the valley There's a darkness that can blind It was every man for himself No one's getting out alive But I will not shut my eyes No, I will not fall silent Canary in the mine Oh I will, ooh honey I will I will sing I will sing Sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing, canary sing Sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing, canary sing Oh I will sing I will sing There's a shadow hanging overhead There's a cold chill in my bones

Came in from a rainy Thursday On the avenue Thought I heard you talking softly I turned on the lights, the TV And the radio Still I can't escape the ghost of you What has happened to it all? Crazy, some are saying Where is the life that I recognize? Gone away But I won't cry for yesterday There's an ordinary world Somehow I have to find And as I try to make my way To the ordinary world I will learn to survive Passion or coincidence Once prompted you to say "Pride will tear us both apart" Well now pride's gone out the window Cross the rooftops Run away Left me in the vacuum of my heart What is happening to me? Crazy, some'd say Where is my friend when I need you most? Gone away But I won't cry for yesterday There's an ordinary world Somehow I have to find And as I try to make my way To the ordinary world I will learn to survive Papers in the roadside Tell of suffering and greed Here today, forgot tomorrow Ooh, here besides the news Of holy war and holy need Ours is just a little sorrowed talk And I don't cry for yesterday There's an ordinary world Somehow I have to find And as I try to make my way To the ordinary world I will learn to survive Every one Is my world Every one Is my world

There are no wrong roads And no window stays closed Love is always sad when it fades The glass is better stained anyways If never you find what you're looking for Come on back to the front porch Say my name through the screen door Come on back to the front porch Whatever you've done it doesn't matter 'Cause darling we're all a little splintered and battered But the light is on, what you waiting for? Come on back, come on back to the front porch We carved a story in these boards Watching life go back and forth You take it all for granted, then you leave And then it takes a while to realize what you need If never you find what you're looking for Come on back to the front porch Say my name through the screen door Come on back to the front porch Whatever you've done it doesn't matter 'Cause darling we're all a little splintered and battered But the light is on, what you waiting for? Come on back, come on back I took the long way Looking for the shortcut To find out that this place Was made of the best of If never you find what you're looking for Come on back to the front porch Say my name through the screen door Oh, come on back to the front porch Whatever you've done it doesn't matter 'Cause darling we're all a little splintered and battered But the light is on, what you waiting for? Come on back, come on back Oh, come on back, come on back to the front porch
