DYING FREE

Hey mom, I'm still your kid
I'm sittin' on the table of the one's that never quit, so
Remember me, as I should be
The boy that used to say that God created life
So it could grow free
Jim B. can build things
As beautiful as something as a devil-severed love to give
But it seems I gotta say, you gotta hear it slow
And if so, I love the show

And each day I gotta face my fears
Because of stupid common terrors
Love to say what I don't need to hear
You got potential, and you got style
But then you study others
Kid you waste your time, so

Fight through this common stride of draggin' me in
If you weren't good enough to try
A dozen men will turn the same shit
As human beings, we're meant to breed
The only thing that really matters is dying free

Have you ever felt home-sick?
'Cause riding home I got lost in your wide arms
I was waiting for your wonder
To shout my name and suddenly it came but
I could say the words
Just keep this awkward situation
And keep you on the back of the show
Fight instead of feeling pity, and grow
Let's say tonight's the night you feel like home

I didn't mean to write a song about this
If sometimes I feel alone
Alone is how I gotta deal with it
And when you're gettin' on, the states remember
The problem's that you may know that you deserve this
Ain't no shame in feelin' low and feelin' worthless

But keep in mind, I'll always be your shelter
Just keep in mind the hours that you'd spend
Thinkin' about the beauty of a song that never ends
Thinkin' about the children holdin' cups and mothers' hands
Thinkin' about your wife sayin' proudly, "That's my man!"
I should be sweatin', but it's cold
It's because I'm gettin' closer to the sun
My Father told me so

Have you ever felt home-sick?
'Cause riding home I got lost in your wide arms
I was waiting for your wonder
To shout my name and suddenly it came but
I could say the words
Just keep this awkward situation
And keep you on the back of the show
Fight instead of feeling pity, and grow
Let's say tonight's the night you feel like-

Higher, take me higher
(Higher) Tell me what's goin' on in here
(Take me higher) Sing the songs you know
(Higher) Tell me what's goin' on in here
(Take me higher) Give to me this love

I could say the words
Just keep this awkward situation
And keep you on the back of the show
Fight instead of feeling pity, and grow
Let's say tonight's the night I'm home
