On The Floor

When the lights go down in the city
Getting real low
Settling in my room Im unnoticed
When a still comes in through my window
Letting me go
I feel a calm come over me on the floor
On the floor
Where the rats all come away clean
Theyre on the floor
Where the children all stomped and screamed
Straight out the door
Well I find myself on my knees
Begging please
When the lights go down in the city
And everyone goes to their room
Walking the trail
To dreamland
When the lights go down in the city
Something is roaring
I find myself
Waiting to believe
On the floor
Where the mice call shots
In the corner thats where Ill be
When the crickets come home and sing their symphony
Well I find myself on my knees
Begging please
On the floor
Facing the things Ive done
Here on the floor
Where the years have gathered and run
Thats where Ill be
And I find myself on my knees

Begging please
