This is a goodbye to the vision on the lattice that's waiting for me in the spring thought I was honest as easy but really I've learned that there ain't no such thing and I'm sorry to let you down but I gotta get the hell outta this town
it's cos I'm leaving soon and I won't be roaming round here anymore it's cos I'm leaving soon and I won't be roaming round here anymore
you hear the wind that's shaking the rafters of your $120 sleeping pit?
the earth that's crying out for reparations? this is the land that birthed your name before you had one
thinking lately we're the last one or just maybe we've gone a long way from home got ourselves loast walking down this long dark and lonely road
elevated on the sidewalk and consecrated in the bathroom stall lord! we've made it! who'd contest what we have accomplished thus far?
so I'm leaving soon and I won't be roaming round here anymore so I'm leaving soon and I won't be roaming round here anymore
go ahead follow the objects you desire they're gonna lead you higher & higher till you've gotten further & further from what you used to call your self when you've gone that far almost nothing can bring you back
but if you pray it will come with the strength of alarms don't doubt these seasons turning when our time has come to pass so don't beg or prostrate cause there's no sense in shame the last smile ain't staring you in the face so there's no cause for worry just yet
still you wait solving nothing with your hands on the breaks and you can't put a price on the good work of the grave all the distance you can travel in the length of a day leaves you sore in the saddle but further from your cave
