Lyrics

It's not the road we used to know
They tore some buildings down
The traffic's like a pack of dogs
There are fewer trees, windows for leas
Concrete on the lawn
There are people here but you are gone
And i'm fine
Still swimming through time
Afraid some days i've reached the shore
Make yourself free
A man said that to me
Now my heart is like an open door

The road finally gave me back
But I don't think i'll unpack
Cuz i'm not sure if I live here anymore

It's not my weight that makes me faint
Or the sugar in my blood
But the way these strangers stand so close
They say my name like a guessing game
Is that really you?
No, I don't think it is or was
In the spring
When the world's turning green
I only think about the fall
Or the frets on the board
My progression of chords
Oh, how I want this to resolve
And the road finally gave me back
But I don't think i'll unpack
Cuz i'm not sure if I live here anymore

Now the road finally gave me back
But I don't think i'll unpack
Cuz I'm not sure if I live here nooo
I'm not sure if I live here anymore
I'm not sure if I live here
Anymore
