| Standin' on the side of the road with a long shadow and suitcases
|
| Going nowhere, and I don’t care, I’m a grown man
|
| Hold my own hand, kickin' my own ass for cryin'
|
| I’m dyin' on the inside, they don’t know who I am
|
| Filthy, fraught, and haunted by a guilty conscience
|
| Runnin' away, and all because of silly nonsense
|
| Gone since — God knows when
|
| And I ain’t comin' back knowin' that, no one gives a rat’s ass anyway
|
| I just wanna find a place where I can sit in a rocking chair
|
| No matter how far, even if it means walking there
|
| Maybe I’ll get me a dog for some company
|
| It’s better than tryin' to figure out somebody
|
| Give me a good book, a radio, and a sewing machine
|
| A place in the woods by the ocean and no inbetween
|
| I gotta get rid of these dark circles and headaches
|
| Maybe if I meditate, rather than medicate
|
| I can no longer hesitate, I get so frantic
|
| But what if my wishes are overly romantic
|
| Though, the suns too low in the sky for second guesses I reken
|
| And I’m used to taking chances
|
| Breakin' a few branches, and gettin' lucky now and then
|
| Findin' some trouble, was just a matter of how and when
|
| And now I take notes, and make boats from Burch bark
|
| But stress still shows in my face like a birthmark
|
| As soon as I get where I’m going I’m going to wash my hands thoroughly
|
| And start getting out of bed earlier
|
| It’s curious the way I’ve tried vicariously
|
| To fly so low to the ground and so carelessly
|
| How embarassing, I can’t wait to call it quits
|
| Knowing that more and more tiring is all it gets
|
| I’ve applied various and unique strategies
|
| Read a few Greek tragedies and fasted for two weeks
|
| Been rollin' around
|
| In the hole in the ground
|
| No surprise both my eyes
|
| Are swollen shut, I’m stranded with no supplies
|
| I need a lift…
|
| What have I done? |
