Counting Crows - Round Here Lyrics
Step out the front door like a ghost into the fogWhere no one notices the contrast of white on whiteAnd in between the moon and you the angels get a better viewOf the crumbling difference between wrong and rightI walk in the air between the rain through myself and back againWhere? I dont knowMaria says shes dying through the door I hear her cryingWhy? I dont knowRound here we always stand up straightRound here something radiatesMaria came from nashville with a suitcase in her handShe said shed like to meet a boy who looks like elvisShe walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the landJust like shes walking on a wire in the circusShe parks her car outside of my houseTakes her clothes offSays shes close to understanding jesusShe knows shes more than just a little misunderstoodShe has trouble acting normal when shes nervousRound here were carving out our namesRound here we all look the sameRound here we talk just like lionsBut we sacrifice like lambsRound here shes slipping through my handsSleeping children better run like the windOut of the lightning dreamMamas little baby better get herself inOut of the lightningShe says its only in my headShe says shhh I know its only in my headBut the girl on car in the parking lot saysman you should try to take a shotCant you see my walls are crumbling?Then she looks up at the building and says shes thinking of jumpingShe says shes tired of life she must be tired of somethingRound here shes always on my mindRound here hey man got lots of timeRound here were never sent to bed earlyAnd nobody makes us waitRound here we stay up very, very, very, very lateI cant see nothing, nothing round hereCatch me if Im falling
