Livin' on the west coast now
Since September, you been hiding out
Finally hit a wall somehow

Said what's this all about?

Holding up a ragged vow

Made you nervous, made you dream
You could never settle down
Oh, you could never think



And I could see you now

Through doors half shut
As you always wanted to be
And it won't be long

Till it all comes 'round
your eyes so strong and clean



How much will the world allow?
Skipping payments, dropping out

Livin' on a furrowed brow
Oh, running down and out


Gotta keep it up somehow
Find a highway, fall in love
Riding till your wheels run down

Grab something you dream of



And I can see you now
In a couple years
Your troubles all behind

On a lake somewhere
Your dog beside
And your spirit well defined


And all your scars
Will just be maps

To where you no longer go
Oh pointless cares
Will break like glass

And your slate be white as snow

And I can see you now

Through lucid air
As you always wanted to be
And it won't be long

Till you get there
Your eyes so strong and clean
