"Left On Dilworth" lyrics

When the black sheep leaves the nest
There's no coming back
I found the cure to happiness
And now my bags are packed
Say goodbye to the boy
The ending has begun
You better not miss your flight, it's aimed
Right at the sun (Yeah)

And I've done lines with the Reaper, pistol to my head
And if time's not the healer, then what's dead is dead
Spending nights in the ether — it's getting lonely on the edge

I'm shedding my skin
Forgetting my worth
Lost my innocence
And all that we were
Was left on Dilworth

Weeping under willows
Breathing in my pillow
My neighbor's at my window
Self-absorbed deprecation
High on californication
In the lights, dancing naked

I'm shedding my skin
Forgetting my worth
Lost my innocence
And all that we were
The better it was
The more that it hurts
'Cause all that I loved
And all that we were
Was left on Dilworth
