Down the street is the bureau of broken dreams
Storms in their eyes and regret on every face you meet
Howards in the alley becoming less than a man
While he spends his nights alone and throws himself at whoever he can
Howard has a problem
He can’t get enough
Of his older ways
Dips into a suicide
Apples in his cyanide
Everyday
Down the street is the center of mental care
He goes there everyday to talk to people who don’t care
He can’t sleep ‘cause he’s afraid of having a dream
But I don’t really blame him ‘cause he’s got a king of hearts up his sleeve
Howard has a problem
He can’t get enough
Of his older ways
Dips into a suicide
Apples in his cyanide
Everyday
Howard has a problem, things are getting tough,
Living under a rock, now I think he’s had enough
Howard has a problem, things are getting worse,
Getting closer to the day that he’s buried ‘neath the earth
Howard has a problem, life is getting tough,
Now there’s no more Howard, Now he’s had enough
Howard had a problem
He just had enough
Of his older ways
Committed to his suicide
Apples in his cyanide
To this day
And now there’s no more Howard
