about

The oldest song on the album, written when I was trying to convince myself to leave...

lyrics

Well I’ve been waiting on a train
Back in my old home town
Man I don’t really want to leave here
But I just can’t seem to settle down

And maybe I’ve grown restless again man
Won’t come wake me, from this slumber
And now I’m walking a thin think wire
And I’m ten thousand feet about this town

I’ve been trying to come to terms
With my drive thru kind of faith
I want it fast, want it cheap, I want it hot
But that man he keeps asking me for change

Chorus

There used to be nothing that I wanted more
Than to be something great
But lately, there’s nothing that I want greater
Than just to be, well, something more
