2001 Lyrics

[Verse 1]

There's no hope for myself trying to be a good pearl

Tried to walk the line and see the light

But as the sun sets, the lonelier I get



[Pre-Chorus]

Tried to put my thoughts down

Keep my hands in my pockets

Not to make a sound or go downtown

Just cocaine and running and howling all night long

A tango with hell, but it sure don't matter none



[Chorus]

'Cause my baby left me in 2001 and I

Haven't seen the sun since he's been gone

All I do is watch the moon



[Verse 2]

Nothing's right, it's all messed up I'm lonely and I'm grieving

My conscience, hallelujah drives me to thinking

And all the good in me to leaving



[Pre-Chorus]

Tried to put my thoughts down

Keep my hands in my pockets

Not to make a sound

For the blue and red downtown



[Chorus]

'Cause my baby left me in 2001 and I

Haven't seen the sun since he's been gone

All I do is watch the moon
