{Verse 1}
Early last morning as the sun arose
The thought came to me
That any place was better than home
And so I’m leaving tomorrow
I’m leaving in between
I don’t want your sweet sorrows
No, I don’t want anything
That you want to give to me
{Chorus}
So if I don’t say goodbye
It’s ‘cause I’ve left myself behind
I’m so tired of not knowing which way to go
And I’ve got nothing left to lose
So I’m singing the blues
In this drawn out, expanding, subtle town
{Verse 2}
Driving up 380, dreaming of Amsterdam
Thinking how everything’s so perfect
And that I always, I get my man
A sea of farming life, a bowl in my hands
It’s scary how a man feels like he’s up on a cross
When he’s stuck right wherе he stands
{Chorus}
So if I change my mind
You gots to let mе go this time
‘Cause it’s true, we’ve got different ideas of love
And I’ve got nothing left to lose
So I’m singing the blues
In this drawn out, expanding, subtle town
(Ain’t got no equilibrium, so play it for Hobbes)
(Aww dawg)
{Verse 3}
Now somewhere in my past, knowing what I’ve always known
We all grew up to fast
So now we all, we all grow alone
So give me your karma and get in the car
‘Cause hope’s a hindrance and genius
Well he ain’t nothing but a fallin’ star
{Chorus}
And I’m taking the road tonight
‘Cause not everything turns out right
And where I end up, well I’ll gladly waste my bones
And I’ve got nothing left to lose
So I’m singing the blues
In this drawn out, expanding, subtle town
In this drawn out, expanding, subtle town (one more time)
In this drawn out, so drawn out, subtle town
