My lungs are full of diesel fumes My heart is full of missing you Tried to go to the roof to get closer to the sky So tired I can't sleep I'm separating stars from city lights But my little home is not as high as these other buildings I heard they're supposed to scrape the sky but I think they're missing I'm missing a place there's no replacing Where she's listening to crickets sing I can only hear this TV humming It's dark in VT tonight Too bright in this fake light Gonna drive all night leave the concrete in my dust Gonna cool my feet in mountain streams til I've had enough Take a long run sweat the city out of my blood The water runs its race so fast and hard Just to end up right back where it started The harder I try to hold The faster it goes I've been breathing out more than I've been breathing in Gonna head straight home til I find myself a second wind I thought by now I'd have a little more figured out Had a mouthful of wisdom once but someone pulled it out So I'm going back Hide and seek until I find it My lungs are full of diesel fumes My heart is full of missing you
