Skippin' Stones

Grew up in the middle of nowhere
Familiar faces everywhere
Lost in the shuffle but we don't care
The door's unlocked when we're not there

Somethin' about it
Keeps me comin' back when I've had it
N' when I'm away, I can't help but
Leave a piece of me back home

'Cause I've got friends and I've got foes
I try to be open but I'm normally closed
One day we're rich, then the next we're broke
Back at home, that's just the way it goes
Small town days, where do they go
Wasting away in this
Same old place same old roads
Over and over it's bittersweet
Skippin' stones

Walkin' without an objective
Finding another perspective
Away from the talk I dare mention
Asking myself the right questions
There's no way around it
It's never quite the same as it sounded
So keep me awake, 'cause if I'm asleep
I'll miss my chance to go

Well I've got friends and I've got foes
I try to be open but I'm normally closed
One day we're rich, then the next we're broke
Back at home, that's just the way it goes
Small town days, where do they go
Wasting away in this
Same old place same old roads
Over and over it's bittersweet
Skippin' stones

I'm watching the moment slip away
I can't afford to stay here
I can't afford to stay

Well I've got friends and I've got foes
I try to be open but I'm normally closed
One day we're rich, then the next we're broke
That's just the way it goes
I've got friends and I've got foes
I try to be open but I'm normally closed
One day we're rich, then the next we're broke
Back at home, that's just the way it goes
Small town days, where do they go
Wasting away in this
Same old place same old roads
Over and over it's bittersweet
