Song lyrics
Chorus:

Broadway is dark tonight
A little bit weaker than you used to be
Broadway is dark tonight
See the young man sittin' in the old man's bar
Waitin' for his turn to die

The cowboy kills the rock star
And Friday night's gone too far
The dim light hides the years
On all the faded girls

Forgotten but not gone
You drink it off your mind
You talk about the world
Like it's someplace that you've been

You see you'd love to run home
But you know you ain't got one
Cause you're livin' in a world that
You're best forgotten, around here

Chorus

You choke down all your anger
Forget your only son
You pray to statues when you sober up for fun
Your anger don't impress me
The world's laughed in your face
It always rains like hell on the loser's day parade

You see you'd love to run home
But you know ain't got one
Cause you're livin' in a world
That you're best forgotten
When you're thinkin' of a joke
Ain't nobody gonna listen
To the one small point
I know they've been missin' round here

Chorus

You see you'd love to run home
But you know ain't got one
Cause you're livin' in a world
That you're best forgotten
When you're thinkin' of a joke
Ain't nobody gonna listen
To the one small point
I know they've been missin' round here

Chorus

goo goo dolls were always underground punk band, that was there thing, and they were good at it.

then on their albulm 'a boy named goo' rznick wrote a ballad, which many rock bands do, called 'name'

the thing is, when this ballad became famous, and brought it a lot of money.. the band decided to change their music in order to go w/ that which would bring them money.

the next albulm, 'dizzy up the girl' featured rznick singing only the light, poppy sound that indeed made them more money, and indeed made names in the popular music world.

but
it also was a sellout to the punk music they had been doing for so many years before.

i'm not saying they're not well liked..

all i'm saying is that they sold out to the punk scene.

Great song! I don't know if it's my favorite from them though, it might be "Iris" or "Black Balloon" or "Slide." It fluctuates. They're just really good.

watch out it's a grammar nazi in the house.


i was stating what is fact. that is all.
you're an idiot if you don't wish to try and comprehend it, and instead try to retaliate by instead of focusing on the topic at hand, insult my punctuation.

Um, I hate to intrude in what could end up in a full out brawl, but I just wanted to say that I love this song, and I am so sad that I haven't heard it in months.
