lyrics

Can’t pick my head up from the pillow, can’t close my eyes to the sun
I’m feeling like a weeping willow, my roots are too spread out for me to run

I’m like the porch that’s on this cabin, an inch above the dirt beneath my feet
Yesterday I kicked my smoking habit, but there’s another three or four I haven’t beat

Been looking for an answer for I don’t know how long
Thought I’d find it in a bottle, and then I thought I’d find it in a song
But that’s just me

Can’t say a thought without a punchline, can’t make a joke bigger than me
I hang my heart out on a clothesline, hoping a strong breeze will set me free

Been looking for an answer, been looking at the stars
Constellations dance around me, laying, waiting, not getting too far
But that’s just me

Don’t turn your faces when you see me, this isn’t how I usually am
And if you think I’m too far gone to save me, just admit to yourself you don’t give a damn

Been looking for an answer, thought I’d find it in myself
But you know there’s always pressure comin’ in from everybody else

Been getting lost in pages and pages of words in my mind
Try to keep‘m deep inside me cuz when I let’m out it’s always the wrong time

But that’s just me
I am free

Been looking for an answer for I don’t know how long
Thought I’d find it in a bottle, and then I thought I’d find it in a song
