Tractors out on the street
They're drilling under our house
Shadows fall through the windows
My eyes search for light
I think about you often
I can admit that now
Sometimes while drunk I punch in your number
But I always chicken out
I forgot how one longs
A consequence of having everything
But there is nothing like living here
Then you disappeared
Why am I never able to wait
It's the story of my life
But I never had your patience
I just chased the next high
I am no longer there
I am somewhere else
I am no longer there my friend
I am somewhere else
I take the train home from summer
For a dinner with my brother
He is the closest thing I have to a friend
We talk of small and large things
It wasn't until I turned 24
That I finally understood
That the most important thing we have in life
Is blood for blood
We walk slowly home from church
Have said Goodbye to our uncle
Past the floodgates where the willow trees stood
But we don't say a word
Our dreams are like movies
Movies we saw as children
And they unfold during the night
But we dream only during the day
I am no longer there
I am somewhere else
I am no longer there my friend
I am somewhere else
You can't follow me
Don't follow me now
There we should go
Must go
Must go
Don't follow me
Don't follow me now
(Another place, we are somewhere else)
You can't follow me
