You always get nervous in this light
It must be something from childhood
Some great repression, don't you think?
And what was the catalyst?
So many seeds of the 1980s
have grown into gardens
in your adult mind
But, you never tended to them
and you let them all die
in the drought of 2005
You're inclined to sell everything
and move to the city
A mislocation
And you know that you have
felt this way from the start
And you can't remember if it was
your head or your heart
This is a word from someone who's been there
and someone who can understand your plight
And I know that it gets lonely
It gets lonely for us all
I promise that it all gets easier with time
You're just having trouble connecting the lines
The government's not a part of this
There's no paperwork for how you're feeling
Color charts and seismographs and atlases
can't triangulate your whereabouts,
your mental state, your complicated disarray
This is a word from someone who's been there
and someone who can understand your plight
And I know that it gets lonely
It gets lonely for us all
This is a word from someone who's been there
and understands the art of the sleepless night
And I know that it gets lonely...
I know that it gets lonely
I know that it gets lonely
I know that it gets lonely
