Verse 1:
Save a song for
me to sing boy
if I wanna play a
song tonight oh oh
Is there something
I could wail out
if I wanna wail
by candlelight? oh oh
I'm feeling sick
I'm feeling old
I'm feeling weak
I feel that snow
Down in my knees
Down in my soul
In place of guts
I've got a hole
Like everybody else
I've ever known
Chorus 1:
Baby this ain't
home to me
no matter what
they say
The grass is too
damn green here
and the hearts
are dull and grey
So take me down
to that city
where the girls
just look okay
It's about all
I can take it
I've stood too
long in one place
Verse 2:
Strap me to the station
wagon roof and drive
me out into the hills
It may sound like I'm
screaming from the car
but I'm just screaming
from the thrill I'm
so alive I'm so afraid
That I've been wasting
what's left of these days
These days I feel with
a cold heart It's easier
to keep it hard Just
grab your shit and
meet me in the yard
Chorus 2:
Baby this ain't
home to me
no matter what
they say
The grass is too
damn green here
and the hearts
are dull and grey
So take me down
to that city
where the girls
just look okay
It's about all
I can take it
I've stood too
long in one place
Bridge:
Lollipop dreams and
candycane waves
Are gonna hurt like hell
when they crumble away
Because a beautiful youth
hurts worst when it dies
A rotten reminder of the
days we decided we'd rather
go big and then rot away
We'd give into love
and wind up castaways
We said "fuck all the old
boring shits we've become"
So we hoarded our dreams
and we burnt every one
And fuck me man I knew
not what I'd done
Fuck us man we knew
not what we'd done
Fuck us man we knew
not what we'd done
Man we were just
having some fun
Chorus 3: Slower beat
Baby this ain't
home to me
no matter what
they say
The grass is too
damn green here
and the hearts
are dull and grey
So take me down
to that city
where the girls
just look okay
It's about all
I can take it
I've stood too
