lyrics

Not sure just who I am
Or what I’m supposed to do.
That didn’t stop me before,
But before-me is out of view.

8,000 miles from home
Or from where that used to be.
I’ve gone so far ‘round the world.
I’ve come so far to escape me.

Not sure I know the trends.
Eleven years have slipped through.
Not sure I know my friends.
Are we envelopes with no more glue?

Distance is measured in miles,
And time laid out in years.
Another metric I’ve known
Is the volume of my tears.

Not sure just who I am
Or what it is I’m supposed to do.
That didn’t stop me before,
But before-me is done and through.

8,000 miles from home
Or from where that used to be.
I’ve gone so far ‘round the world.
I’ve come so far just to find me.
