lyrics

I think last night I heard you crying
It must have been in my head
Because lately I have not been flying
I've been laying alone in bed
Two days after Christmas
Two days up in Maine
Sleeping at the airport
But I can't feel the shame

We're all chained down
To the tethers of our towns
We're all chained down

Miracles are only stupid luck
But God, I could use some
Because this town just doesn't give a fuck
And these chains, I wish I could lose them
Well maybe our time is up
When is enough enough?
I guess our time is up

I think tonight you'll be denying
The things my friends have said
But I'm too tired to keep on dying
And I've got no time left to be dead
Two months after New Year
Green walls and pink sheets
I'm not comparing notes
So there's no need to compete

I should be running to you
But it's hard when you've got no shoes
You couldn't catch me if I fell
So I'll rely on leather boots
I should be running away
You know I never had much to say
So pull me out by the roots
And I'll start again on New Year's Day
