lyrics

Buy me a postcard and a ticket out of here
Don't know where I'm going
But I'm hoping you'll be there
Found peace in the valley
But I went and messed it up
If I get home to Tennessee I hope I can make it up to you

I know I'm selfish and I know the harm I've caused
But this train keeps on taking me past greener fenced in yards
If I get back home and find a place to rest my head
I don't mind your company
It's just that I'd rather be dead

There a fire in the oven
We're throwing sheets and pans at the wall
Lord I'm lonely
Lord I'm so unholy
Won't you meet me where the river turns to souls

Longing to drive away
Drive away to western states
Those bridges were burned such a long time ago
Keep running away
Till we get to where we know that we belong
Till we get to where we know that we belong
