about

This is about being away for a long time, and seeing all the people at home that you miss.

lyrics

Shut myself off from those who care
Tired and need to be alone
Loosing touch of all I shared with them
I'll smile at the thought of coming home

It's a steep slope for minutes of solitude
when loved ones need a place to lean
I'm selfish; there's no room for gratitude
I'll smile at a chance to live clean

I'm back here, reminded who I am
A small town boy who's in over his head
I'm back here reminded of a history
Not perfect, who could claim it to be that way

The embrace of a kind old friend
Catching up on all I miss
The thoughts won't ever transcend
When you're heard, surroundings won't resist

I'm back here, reminded who I am
A small town boy who's in over his head
I'm back here reminded of a history
Not perfect, who could claim it to be that way
