lyrics

Woah how did I get here
My face is in the gutter, why won't you let me in?
The world keeps spinnin' around me
And I keep turnin’ back
Somebody tell me, what kinda place do we live in?

Somebody take me to the place I know
where the grass grows tall
(and all the people are gone)

I wanna love it but I know I might fall
I need some time
(away from home)

Woah, how did we get here?
It's gotten so bad it makes me wanna live alone
The world has taken the wrong turn
How do we get it back?
Somebody tell me, what kind of place do we live in?

Somebody take me to the place I know
where the grass grows tall
(and all the people are gone)

I wanna love it but I know I might fall
I need some time
(away from home)

Holy fuck this has some great riffs. I was looking for something to listen to while I take a trip and this just blew me away. Of course it could be the liquor talking but than again it's always the liquor talking. Old Man Doom
