LYRICS: 
 
Black cloud on the sun 
I turn my collar up 
And walk from your door 
Out to McCounty Road 
 
Chorus 1: 
Oh yeah, what luck 
Time ain't been rough on us (?) 
But right now, oh boy 
We've hit the turning point 
 
Three, four years or more 
My life was on the floor 
Blind faith, hangin' in 
Hungry and tired of it 
 
Chorus 2: 
Oh yeah, bad luck 
Had taken over us 
But right now, oh boy 
We've hit the turning point 
 
She's had to follow me 
Up and down these empty streets 
Whiskey on her breath 
Trying to give the world a test 
 
(Repeat Chorus 2) 
 
Any corrections are welcome.  I'm not sure about all the lyrics.  - Adriyel
