Just Like Leaving

The lights pouring through my window dressing Everything all up in gold and I don't know what I'm doing here I left the howling winds and the prairies To find some kind of idea, am I full or am I empty? Well, maybe I'm just like hurting Building up walls and then ripping them down With my own disposition My own hurting masks the way I feel 'bout the world And all the little things I wish were different And I've been grieving since I left old Carolina The bars on my window didn't leave me safe at night Now I've chased your love 'cause I thought it might feel woolen Like a dram on a damn, cold winter's night Well, some things they just like leaving Like people, love and money and I don't know what it's all running from Perhaps the fear of splitting open Showing some parts of yourself That you don't even really want to know And I've been grieving since I left old Carolina The bars on my window didn't leave me safe at night Now I've chased your love 'cause I thought it might feel woolen Like a dram on a damn, cold winter's night Like a dram on a damn, cold winter's night
