Why when men look outside, do they see houses
Instead of the fields they grew from
We are Constantly uprooted from them, making us tiresome and fearful
Can you get up right now, endeavor to freefall (Off)
You can fall if you want to
It's just a matter of how far
You've treasured our home town
But you've forgotten where you are
And it will stay with you until your mind's been found
And it has been found wandering around
With that skipping rope, the trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
But we didn't give up hope
It's just the simple ways, of getting paid
The carelessness of running away
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
Patterns all arranged in my background
It's pillars and posts keeping this country on form
Letters were all sent with no addresses
So that people can't discover
Always undercover
Why do I always draw triangles
Instead of words this paper so deserves
You see
I don't own my clothes but I own my mind
And it's not what you've lost
But it's what you find.
I don't own my clothes but I own my mind
And it's not what you've lost
But it's what you find.
With that skipping rope, the trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
But we didn't give up hope
It's just the simple ways, of getting paid
The carelessness of running away
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
'Cause you can fall if you want to
It's just a matter of how far
You've treasured our home town
But you've forgotten where you are
And it will stay with you until your mind's been found
And it has been found wandering around
With that skipping rope, the trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
But we didn't give up hope
It's just the simple ways, of getting paid
The carelessness of running away
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
Why can't we speak another language, one we all agree on Why when men look outside, do they see houses Instead of the fields they grew from We are Constantly uprooted from them, making us tiresome and fearful Can you get up right now, endeavor to freefall (Off) You can fall if you want to It's just a matter of how far You've treasured our home town But you've forgotten where you are And it will stay with you until your mind's been found And it has been found wandering around With that skipping rope, the trampoline The crafty smoke that made us choke But we didn't give up hope It's just the simple ways, of getting paid The carelessness of running away I wish I stayed I wish I stayed I wish I stayed Patterns all arranged in my background It's pillars and posts keeping this country on form Letters were all sent with no addresses So that people can't discover Always undercover Why do I always draw triangles Instead of words this paper so deserves You see I don't own my clothes but I own my mind And it's not what you've lost But it's what you find.
