Well I just got in and I poured myself a drink in the bus station parking lot
There is nothing longer than the road that wanders round a leaves you right back where you started from
The pavement is a little rougher and my shoes are a little worn down
Everything's the same but everything has changed
I'm a stranger in my hometown
I'll admit it does look pretty
Like a lover who demands adulation
I'd be whipped and shaken
To show my love
I'm stranded
Left for dead
So I crawled back home begged my dad for a loan he said what are you gonna spend it on?
Cause back in his day you worked hard to get paid digging trenches or mowing lawns
It's a different landscape a different situation
We're all on forced vacation
Just blowing round the garden like a dandelion
Welcome back to the city
Servitude that defies imagination
Well congratulations
You wore me down
Now we're stranded
Left for dead
Like a lover who demands adulation
We're all stranded in this situation

Wild and Free

Walked out of a fog and into a haze
Those were some of our clearest days
You don't need to know where you're going
If you've got the right hand to hold
We had nowhere to sleep
So we walked all night in the cold
When we were free
Wild and free
Wild and free
Slid out of the pan and into the fire
Popping like corn full of desire
Remember the holes in your old jean jacket?
Caught in the sparks
Down by the beach after dark
When we were free
Wild and free
Wild and free
