The Place That I Belong
I'd like to explain where I am coming from
It's not actually such a dark and lonely place
And even though it seems I've given up it seems I actually stand a chance within this rat race, I think
It's like watching sport your team is losing
And all of a sudden you're an expert at the rules
But it doesn't make a difference 'cause you can't control who'll ever win or lose
I'm often staring at myself, I'm wondering what the hell went wrong
I've become this shitty punchline of a joke that's way too long
And even though I haven't found it yet, there's a place that I belong
Oh, won't you show me who to be?
I fell asleep once and had a dream
That I couldn't swim and I was drowning in the sea
But no one ever seemed to notice all my constant screams for help amongst my other screams
I see the water as a metaphor for all the things in life
That are taking up the time we have to breathe
I need to teach myself to swim and take a visit to the sea, I think
I'm often staring at myself, I'm wondering what the hell went wrong
I've become this shitty punchline of a joke that's way too long
And even though I haven't found it yet, there's a place that I belong
Oh, won't you show me who to be?
Grab me by the wrist and show me all the things I've missed
Because there's so much in this world I've yet to see
Put your hand in mine because I know you've got the time
And I will follow you wherever you may lead
I wanna feel love and hate and all the things that make us great
And even all the things that make us wanna die
There's a place that I belong
Yes, a place that I belong
And I know it's there to find
I'm often staring at myself, I'm wondering what the hell went wrong
I've become this shitty punchline of a joke that's way too long
And even though I haven't found it yet, there's a place that I belong
Oh, won't you show me who to be?
