lyrics

I got told when I got older
“Hold your wandering heart and soul up, boy”
No one taught me to be manly
I owe my values to my family’s voice

Don’t wear your heart on your sleeve
Don’t be afraid to leave if you don’t feel secure
Don’t be a stranger to grief
It’s often cloaked in relief if you wait for it

I am so far away from home
And I’m so very close to the edge of the unknown
I am so far away from home
And I’m carrying the world at the base of my backbone

Ba da bow, babadaba da ba

The man can best the mountain
But it’s just himself he’s climbing up these days
Reckless abandon
Seems to be my standard state

These lofty heights that I crave
I’ve got far too much to say that I should keep to myself
“Don’t see a stranger”, I begged, tearing open my head
When all I needed was help

I am so far away from home
And I’m so very close to the edge of the unknown
I am so far away from home
And I’m carrying the world at the base of my backbone

Ba da bow, babadaba da ba

I belong, I belong, I belong here
I belong, I belong, I belong

Ba da bow, babadaba da ba
