Lyrics:
In the back of a stranger's car
Maryland's so near, and yet so far
I wrote this song six years ago, but didn't know the words
I'm still piecing it together from everything I've heardLet's walk around
These empty fields
Figure it out, then talk about
Just what it is we feel'Cause this city's crumbling into dust, yeah
'Cause they'd rather die with it than give it to us, yeahI am
Not someone you know.
So despite what you said about us
I said "I really don't think so"
Now I'll be on the road again
In no time flat
And I can promise you
I won't look backSo you like seeing people hurt
I get it, someone hurt you first
And I'm sorry, but
if you let that part take you over
Like I did
I know that you will
Become the worstDon't let the flowers of evil bloom
Take this medicine
And pull them by the roots
I know they've germinated
But they can still be terminated
There is still
A way out of this doomHome
Is
Not a place I know
Wherever my head hits
I rest
And whenever I feel
I go
I won't be long
Now
So please
I'm gonna ask you
Not to follow me
