I'm the only voice inside of my head But that's not what I'm worried about My own room has rejected me again The state of the world has left me roaming around
When I got too sick I crawled to the road Found my old thoughts as I watched the landscape roll I learned everything from these dark shapes in the heave I believe you know I was born to leave
So I walked the streets in search of innocence Yours I found and the children were saved But I think I swear more than I should I swear I'll come back to see you soon When I can, when the weather's right Cause in the confort of winter I slept when I could And I could only think of you and the city And the people that don't make a sound And those that write things on the walls I'm telling you because I care, and you were there, I saw salvation on a merry-go-round
I felt the need to stay a while I needed to find the places in the movies A perfect moment when the lighting's right A fake cardboard place full of possibilities
I went to see the few people I can stand It took them so long to remember what to say But my words were melting into theirs I can't face anyone for more than a day
I'm home everywhere as long as the sun sets down We grow up crooked like trees in the ache that surrounds I will be home on the road when the sun sets down
