Somebody's waiting for me.
There's an answer that I have been chasing.
Always a change in my hometown to see.
I'm running so fast
Who am I racing?

There's always something to do,
But it don't fill the holes that it promises to.
Now everything starts to move on its own
Carrying me too far away.

Somebody's calling my phone,
Begging for me to come home.
Every town has the same broken bones
& loneliness.

Does there have to be silence
To hear the truth?
I don't know that I'll find it,
But I may know where to look.

I am awake in the dark,
Alone at the kitchen table,
Taking the time to feel time passing by,
Perfectly still,
Perfectly here.
Now everything starts to move
As if by some common magic,
Shadows & sparrows & the very sky
Moving my heart,
Standing me up.

Someone is waiting for me,
Somewhere apart from the part I can see.
He never visits, except in my dreams
Just out of reach,
Gone but still close."
