    As performed by The Push Stars on After The Party


So she went to the bar on the corner 
With some friends who were buried alive
And a man leaned over to tell her
That her luck had finally arrived 
Said he drove a Cadillac 
They could sneak out thru the crack 
And he’d never bring her back here again

Watched her finger twirl a circle in her drink
If you think too much, then you’ll never decide
You end up like an ice cube sinking down to the bottom 
So you do what you must to survive 
So she walked out by his side 
To strange shadows in the night
Disappeared in the streetlights and were gone

And Here I am
And Here I am

"So where's it parked," she said
"We've walked so far and I'm getting so tired"
And he looked like a crook who'd just been caught
He said "I don't own no Cadillac 
 Don't even own a paper sack 
 To carry the confidence that I lack and my lies"

So she said "You know I just can't believe this"
He said "Go ahead, just leave, I understand"
But instead she rested his head on her shoulder
But how could he love her with nothing to give her
But empty pockets and a crooked man?
Well she said "You can love me with your hands 
 You can love me with your eyes
 You can love me with your voice and your lies"

And here I am
And here I am
And here I am
And here I am...
