The World At Large

Ice age heat wave, can't complain If the world's at large, why should I remain? Walked away to another planet Gonna find another place, maybe one I can stand I move on to another day To a whole new town with a whole new way Went to the porch to have a thought Got to the door and again I couldn't stop You don't know where and you don't know when But you've still got your words and you've got your friends Walk along to another day Work a little harder, work another way Well, uh, uh, baby, I ain't got no plan Well, I float on, maybe would you understand? Gonna float on, maybe would you understand? Well, I float on, maybe would you understand? The days get shorter and the nights get cold I like the autumn, but this place is getting old I pack up my belongings and I head for the coast It might not be a lot, but I feel like I'm making the most The days get longer and the nights smell green I guess it's not surprising, but it's spring and I should leave I like songs about drifters, books about the same They both seem to make me feel a little less insane Walked on off to another spot I still haven't gotten anywhere that I want Did I want love? Did I need to know? Why does it always feel like I'm caught in an undertow? Moths beat themselves to death against the lights Adding their breeze to the summer nights Outside, water, like air was gray I didn't know what I had that day Walk a little further to another planet You said that you did, but you didn't understand I know that starting over's not what life's about But my thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth My thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth My thoughts were so loud
