Puzzled

Sixteen years old, no idea

What life has got in store

I just sing songs on my phone

But then I hit the road

To the big city where you take the dream

This ain't Indiana no more

Yeah, I ditch school, some call me crazy

And then I go on tour

Got friends, a girl, and family

Back home I don't see much

Growing up and time alone

Keeping my head all mixed up

So I mixed up a couple drinks

Thinking I'd feel better

Yeah, I've done wrong, yeah, I've done right

Trying to put it all together

I found a piece in Tennessee

Left some back in Indiana

There's one that went missing

Somewhere down in Alabama

The bigger picture ain't all there

But someday I pray it is

Through all the tears, through all the struggle

Eight short years, it's had me troubled

But I know one day I'll find out why this life

Has kept me puzzled

Mom and Daddy split up

I think I fall in love

The world shuts down, I go back home

For 'bout the next eight months

And live a little bit of this life

In that house that I'm still missing

We tried to save it

Sometimes things go broke and you can't fix 'em

That's just another part of me

That's gone at the cost of living

I found a piece in Tennessee

Left some back in Indiana

There's one that went missing

Somewhere down in Alabama

The bigger picture ain't all there

But someday I pray it is

Through all the tears, through all the struggle

Eight short years, it's had me troubled

But I know one day I'll find out why this life

Has kept me puzzled

Woah, ooh

I found a piece in Tennessee

Left some back in Indiana

There's one that went missing

Somewhere down in Alabama

The bigger picture still ain't there

But someday I pray it is

Through all the tears, through all the struggle

Eight short years and I'm still trouble

But I know one day I'll find out why this life

Yeah, I know one day I'll find out why this life

Has kept me puzzled

Yeah, I'm still puzzled

Mm
