Skippin' Stones

Grew up in the middle of nowhere Familiar faces everywhere Lost in the shuffle but we don't care The door's unlocked when we're not there Somethin' about it Keeps me comin' back when I've had it N' when I'm away, I can't help but Leave a piece of me back home 'Cause I've got friends and I've got foes I try to be open but I'm normally closed One day we're rich, then the next we're broke Back at home, that's just the way it goes Small town days, where do they go Wasting away in this Same old place same old roads Over and over it's bittersweet Skippin' stones Walkin' without an objective Finding another perspective Away from the talk I dare mention Asking myself the right questions There's no way around it It's never quite the same as it sounded So keep me awake, 'cause if I'm asleep I'll miss my chance to go Well I've got friends and I've got foes I try to be open but I'm normally closed One day we're rich, then the next we're broke Back at home, that's just the way it goes Small town days, where do they go Wasting away in this Same old place same old roads Over and over it's bittersweet Skippin' stones I'm watching the moment slip away I can't afford to stay here I can't afford to stay Well I've got friends and I've got foes I try to be open but I'm normally closed One day we're rich, then the next we're broke That's just the way it goes I've got friends and I've got foes I try to be open but I'm normally closed One day we're rich, then the next we're broke Back at home, that's just the way it goes Small town days, where do they go Wasting away in this Same old place same old roads Over and over it's bittersweet Skippin' stones Stones Skippin' Stones
