Now that San Francisco's gone I guess I'll just pack it in Wanna wash away my sins In the presence of my friends
You and I, we head back east To find a town where we can live Even in the half light We can see that something's gotta give
When we watched the markets crash The promises we made were torn And my parents sent for me From the west where I was born
Some people say We've already lost But they're afraid to pay the cost For what we've lost Pay the cost for what we've lost
Now that you have left me here I will never raise my voice All the diamonds you have here In this home which has no life
Oh, this city's changed so much Since I was a little child Pray to God I won't live to see The death of everything that's wild
Though we knew this day would come Still it took us by surprise In this town where I was born I now see through a dead man's eyes
One day they will see it's long gone.
