Lyrics

The days are long the nights are lean
I'm ready to go ready to leave
I need to find somewhere to breathe
But it takes so long ­ I feel like the best of me is behind me
Back on the streets of the city with the air pollution
I don't wanna choke anymore I need a solution
And I know ­ I already know my decision
I wanna be free; I said I wanna be free
The trees are tall the air is clean
Take me home ­ I wanna go home
Finally found somewhere to be but it took so long
And the world is spread before me
But I'm beat ­ I can't believe my own exhaustion
Everyday so many faces so many decisions
Don't wanna deal anymore ­ I wanna put my boots on
I said I wanna be free ­ I wanna be free
A need for silence
A need for peace
Down by the sea
In a field in the middle of nowhere
Kind of situation that you just won't leave
But I'm beat ­ I tell you I'm beat
Shoo-doo-do-do, Shoo-doo-do-do
Shoo-doo-do-do, yeah
Shoo-doo-do-do, Shoo-doo-do-do
Shoo-doo-do-do, yeah
