Inside Your Town Is Inside Your Head

I THOUGHT YOU WERE WEEPING

WHEN I SLIPPED OUT, THE SCREEN DOOR SLAMS

MAYBE YOU AWOKE OR STOPPED PLAYING PRETEND

I'M NOT GOING TO LIE NO MORE

I'M NOT GOING TO LIE AGAIN

 

ARE YOU TIRED OF RUNNING

AND NOT GETTING AHEAD?

THERE ARE REASONS THAT WE RUN YOU KNOW

THEY'RE ALL INSIDE YOUR HEAD

 

I COULD HAVE STAYED

BUT MY MIND SNIFFED AT THE OLD DECAY

EIGHTEEN YEARS

I KISSED THIS PLACE GOODBYE

NO MORE LAST NIGHTS

IN THE SAME HOTELS, WHERE THE COOPERS SELLS

AND ALL THE SENSE I HAD WENT DOWN THE WISHING WELL

THIS CITY AIN'T DEAD TO ME

IT'S GOT AN ETERNAL LAST BREATH

 

ARE YOU TIRED OF RUNNING

AND NOT GETTING AHEAD?

THERE ARE REASONS THAT WE RUN YOU KNOW

THEY'RE ALL INSIDE YOUR HEAD

 

THE NEWSPAPER FALLS ON YOUR EAST SIDE PORCH

THE RADIO REPORTS ANOTHER WHITE WINE DISPLAY

THERE'S ONE WHO FIGHTS AND ONE WHO RACES

UP THROUGH THE HILLS AND INTERSTATE

 

ARE YOU TIRED OF RUNNING

AND NOT GETTING AHEAD?

THERE ARE REASONS THAT WE RUN YOU KNOW

THEY'RE ALL INSIDE YOUR HEAD

THEY'RE ALL INSIDE YOUR HEAD

THEY'RE ALL INSIDE YOUR HEAD
