About Me


I've grown up here now
All of my life
But I dreamed
Someday I'd go
Where blue eyed girls
And red guitars and
Naked rivers flow
I'm not all I thought I'd be
I always stayed around
I've been as far as mercy and grand
Frozen to the ground
I can't stay here and I'm scared to leave
Just kiss me once and then
I'll go to hell
I might as well
Be whistling down the wind
The bus at the corner
The clocks on the wall
Broken windmill
Theres no wind at all
I yelled and I cursed
If I stay here I'll rust
I'm stuck like a shipwreck
Out here in the dust
Sky is red
And the worlds on fire
And the corn is taller than me
The dog is tied
To a wagon of rain
And the road is as wet as the sea
And sometimes the music from a dance
Will carry across the plains
And the places that Im dreaming of
Do they dream only of me?
There are places where they never sleep
And the circus never ends
So I will take the marley bone coach
And whistle down the wind
