Lyrics

Step out the front door
Like a ghost into the fog
Where no one notices the contrast
Of white on white
And in between the moon and you
Angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference
Between wrong and right
I walk in the air, between the rain
Through myself and back again
Where? I don't know
Maria says she's dying
Through the door I hear her crying
Why? I don't know
'Round here
We always stand up straight
'Round here
Something radiates
Maria came from Nashville
With a suitcase in her hand
Said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
And she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she's walking on a wire in the circus
She parks her car outside my house
And takes her clothes off
She says she's close to understanding Jesus
She knows she's more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous
'Round here
We're carving out our name
'Round here
We all look the same
'Round here
We talk just like lions
But we sacrifice like lambs
'Round here
She's slipping through my hands
Sleeping children better run like the wind
Out of the lightning dream
Momma's little baby better get herself in
Out of the lightning
She says it's only in my head
She says, "I know it's only in my head"
But the girl on the car in the parking lot
Says, "Man, you should try to take a shot"
Can't you see my walls are crumbling?
She looks up at the building
Says she's thinking of jumping
She says she's tired of life
She must be tired of something
'Round here
She's always on my mind
'Round here
Hey man, I got a lot of time
'Round here
Never sent to bed early
And nobody makes us wait
'Round here
We stay up very, very, very, very late
I can't see nothing, nothing
'Round here
Won't you catch me if I'm falling?
Catch me if I'm falling
Catch me if I'm falling down on you
I said I'm under the gun
'Round here
Man I said I'm under the gun
'Round here
And I can't see nothing
Nothing
'Round here
