Somewhere again (alt)

Came in light… dust on my shoes Thought a new sky might change what I knew But it’s the same old hunger… just a different room Same kind of lonely… hummin’ low Found me some people… easy and warm Laughin’ like nothin’ could do us no harm But I get that feelin’… when somethin’ don’t hold Like a screen door swingin’ in the cold They felt like fire… felt like home Ragged together… but not alone We didn’t have much… but it burned just right Kept each other through the night Then it all scattered… wind came hard Voices from the high side cut us apart I stood in the smoke… dirt in my hands Swore right there… I’d never be them But time… don’t care where you drew that line It just keeps on washin’ it down in your mind And what felt like truth… back then Don’t always stay that way, my friend Yeah I lost that fire… lost some friends Said some things I can’t say again But it all bends… in the end We’re just tryin’ to belong somewhere again We drifted a while… place to place Heard different words… same kind of ache They gave us a roof… gave what they could But it never quite felt like it should Some stayed back there… where it all burned down Still talkin’ like it’s still around But I felt somethin’… shift in me Like that road back… wouldn’t set me free Started seein’ faces… I used to blame Looked a little closer… felt the same Ain’t no saints here… ain’t no sin Just people tryin’ to find their in So I walked that road… I said I wouldn’t Didn’t feel right… but I knew I should Left some behind… and it still don’t sit clean But growth don’t ask you what you mean Time… don’t care where you drew that line It just keeps on washin’ it down in your mind And what felt like truth… back then Ain’t always the truth… in the end Yeah I lost that fire… lost some friends But I found some peace… livin’ in Where it all blends… and it don’t gotta end Just tryin’ to belong somewhere again Outro Some still stand where the fire used to be… I just nod my head… let ‘em see what they see… I ain’t who I was… and that’s alright… Just lookin’ for a place… that feels like mine…
