Polished my shoes, I bought a brand-new hat

Moved to a town that time forgot

Where I don't have to shave or be approachable

No, I can do just what I want

I wanna walk in that howling wind 'til it scatters all my thoughts

Sit all alone on the river bank 'til I forget that I can talk

Just listen

They say everyone has a choice to make

To be loved or to be free

I told you once I felt invisible

And I'm sure by now you see

That what I meant is I'm not all there until I finally leave

Some loneliness is acceptable and some's just out right mean

It gets even

The ivy crawls up, the garden wall builds a ladder towards the sun

It can't be climbed, but who's gonna mind if I claim it can be done

Illusion

And the sun goes down, and the stars come out

And the distance that I felt, I can see it for myself now

Boarded a train to take my memories back

Make up for time that I have lost

I'll never know if I'm delusional

I just believe that I am not

I'm gonna work for my sanity, give it everything I got

Though so far I have cheated death, I know someday I'll get caught

Just living

So here we go man, it's beautiful, get your trumpet, get your drum

We'll be keeping time in a second line, it can make you feel so young

I know you say you'll go all the way, but that's not quite far enough

Someone told me that same thing

Someone told me that same thing

Someone told me that exact same thing once
