Elizabeth, New Jersey Lyrics

So much for angels sweeping in

Here's where the butterflies go black.

I've got no reason to stay here,

Driving along 278 and heading out.



What could you say?

Is it not enough what you've already said?

What should I be?

Is it not enough for you after all?



Cause It's raining again over Elizabeth

It's raining again in my heart.

It's flooding the streets again in Elizabeth

It's filling me up and it just won't stop.



Oh won't you come and fill me up?

Won't you stay...



So much for a sense of heroism

Here's where the streetlights blow out.

I've really got no reason to be here,

Driving down the turnpike and heading south.



What should you have said

That wouldn't've mortified me?

What could I have done

To turn you into this terror?



Cause It's raining again over Elizabeth

It's raining again in my heart.

It's flooding the streets again in Elizabeth

It's filling me up and it just won't stop.



Oh won't you fill me up...

Come on and fill me up...



And it's not enough

And it's not enough

I said it's not enough

Oh won't you fill me up...



Cause it's raining again over Elizabeth

It's raining again in my heart.

It's flooding the streets again in Elizabeth

It's filling me up and it just won't stop.
