She can't keep away from them
  Waits here and disappears
  From the wrong things she intends (?)
  Pretty soon they've got you hanging on a line
  Pretty soon they string you one by one, same old rope
  She says, 'I'm alright, just take me home tonight
  She don't want nobody home
  cause its a little too crowded there
  She don't want to be alone
  So they just keep pouring in
  Pretty soon they've got her heading for the door
  She comes home to find they cannot hang around no more
  She says, 'I'm alright, just take me home tonight'
  Pain won't rationalize all those alibis
  and reasons that keep creeping in tonight
  You're half a world away
  But I just can't wash away the stain of
  every single thing that you could not believe
  oh well
  She don't want no one around
  she don't want anybody to see
  what she looks like when she's down
  cause the truth's a sad place to be
  Pretty soon she gets them crawling up the walls
  Every sunday morning the bed bleeds and you never saw ?
  She says, 'I'm ok, its alright, hey look what do
  we want to do tonight?'
  She says, 'I'm alright, I just can't get home
  tonight.'
