On the thirty sixth floor, sometime street
High up in the night, the dreaming conscious meet
Carrie lives in the heart of town
She's always there, always can be found by the next one
Who needs her love
The influence of her friends by day
Means nothing more than the things they say about her
Got to give it up
It'll only bring you down
That's not the way to spend a lifetime
Got to get out of here
Got to find a new place
Show the world a new face
Got to get out of here
So her final footsteps paced across the floor
From the grey apartment into the light of he dawn
Down... down, down, down she sped
While her spirit took to flight
A crowd soon gathered from the remnants of the night
That night
What was her name
Where did she come from
Oh what a way to end a lifetime
