Lights

I moved out west to the house where I spent my childhood's first few years
The city don't treat me well these days and it shows
Through the lines on my face, and the bags I carry under my eyes,
I found comfort in change, and the clear air of the countryside.

And I've tried, tried my best to change my ways,
And I've hoped, hoped it would bring better days,
For the thoughts in my mind, they never felt more than ok (they never felt more than ok)
Yeh the thoughts in my mind, they never felt more than ok (they never felt more than ok)

I went 6,000 miles through 8 different time zones, to the other side of the globe
Where the words that they spoke were so far from my native tongue,
Here the streets overflow, and the flashing lights scramble my mind,
And the change in the time just makes my sleeping harder to find

And I've tried, tried my best to change my ways,
And I've hoped, hoped it would bring better days,
For the thoughts in my mind, they never felt more than ok (they never felt more than ok)
Yeh the thoughts in my mind, they never felt more than ok (they never felt more than ok)

All of my years well I've never been so far from home,
My surroundings will change but I can't help from feeling alone,
No I can't help from feeling alone
No I can't help from feeling alone
(Feeling alone)
No I can't help from feeling alone
(Feeling alone)
No I can't help from feeling alone
(I travelled 6,000 miles to the other side of the globe/feeling alone)
I can't help from feeling alone, can't help from feeling alone..
(I travelled 6,000 miles to the other side of the globe/feeling alone)

And I've tried, tried my best to change my ways,
And I've hoped, hoped it would bring better days,
But the thoughts in my mind, they never felt more than ok (they never felt more than ok)
Yeh the thoughts in my mind, they never felt more than ok (they never felt more than ok)
