12/01/12
I walked the streets of Charlotte
And talked to a girl that I could love
But it made no sense it was all made up
So I drove to Tennessee
My second family
But I never ever ever stay long enough
Until I'm searching through the graves
In the town of Sainte Marie
To try to find what's left in me
On the balcony of an unfamiliar bar
I wore the scars of a lonely broken heart
So she took me to her home
And ran her fingers through my hair
But it made no sense we just pretend to care
And I thought I had buried these thoughts
But they keep digging themselves back up
Well I was just three hours west
Of the town that I call home
And it all made sense I have got to keep on going
I have never felt so free
To try to find what's best in me
I'm not telling you I want this
Just telling myself it's what I need
I've learned the most about myself
On foreign city streets
And I can honestly say I don't belong
Anywhere but halfway
To the next town on the map
And talked to a girl that I could love
But it made no sense it was all made up
So I drove to Tennessee
My second family
But I never ever ever stay long enough
Until I'm searching through the graves
In the town of Sainte Marie
To try to find what's left in me
On the balcony of an unfamiliar bar
I wore the scars of a lonely broken heart
So she took me to her home
And ran her fingers through my hair
But it made no sense we just pretend to care
And I thought I had buried these thoughts
But they keep digging themselves back up
Well I was just three hours west
Of the town that I call home
And it all made sense I have got to keep on going
I have never felt so free
To try to find what's best in me
I'm not telling you I want this
Just telling myself it's what I need
I've learned the most about myself
On foreign city streets
And I can honestly say I don't belong
Anywhere but halfway
To the next town on the map
