	Story Behind the Song This song is very special to me. I felt strongly that I wanted to write a song from the perspective of a specific kind of person. I'll leave it to the listener to figure out what sort of person I was trying to write for. Lyrics Can't hardly sleep at night I think my bed is made of stone And in the daytime, I hold a cardboard sign And stand beneath the bridge I call my home I watch the passing cars I've learned to count the hours 'till darkness brings the bitter cold (bridge) I can see them waiting for the light to turn green Trying not to let me catch their eye I know that as they drive away They will do their level best To forget that I'm alive (chorus) It's a funny feelin' Knowing no one in the world Would trade places with you if they could It's a funny feelin' Being awake is just like dreamin' 'Cause the nightmare never ends, It just goes on... And you're always alone When I left for the war I thought I'd be a hero But when I got back, they gave me no awards In fact, they gave me no respect at all Truth be known This city is much worse Than any jungle I ever saw (bridge 2) I can hear them saying I should just get a job Telling me what they think I should do I wonder as they drive away What they think that I should say When I'm in my interview With tattered clothes and homemade shoes [to chorus] People come along and hand me Bibles They tell me Jesus loves me And forgives me of my sin But for me there's something more important Than my soul's revival I'm wondering when this cold front's gonna end [to chorus]
