Lyrics
Bless the lane lines on the highway Bless the laugh lines on your face Bless the addict in the doorway Bless the things that cannot be replaced Bless the crosswalk on the corner Bless the boardwalk, Jersey Shore Bless the misery of the mourner Bless the things that will not be ignored Bless the carefree, bless the burdened Bless the spoon-fed and deprived Bless the remnants of the fallen Bless the few who made it out alive Bless the heartbeat of the city Bless the downbeat on the one Bless the hollow-eyed and gritty Bless the things that should not be undone Bless the white lines on the freeway Bless the laugh lines on your face Bless the night light in the hallway Bless the daylight, gone without a trace
