At fourteen I used to talk to myself
Paint my bedroom with stars
One for each time my dad flaked out
Got a galaxy of scars
You know that feeling that you get when ya
Start to run out of breath and ya
Pa** out, wake up, wig out
Not knowing where you are
I'm safer here inside my submarine
Cause when I'm underwater you can't say anything
I can't hear anything
Ohio
I don't need Hollywood
I don't need New York heights or Las Vegas lights
I need Ohio
I've never even been there
But I'd rather fall asleep in an open field in Ohio
Ohio
Ohio
Ohi
Last time I saw your face
You were screaming that I don't have a clue
I'm not a deadbeat piece of sh**
Dad, I never learned that from you
You know that feeling when you're weak and ya
Wish you're brain could delete for ya
All the toxic, twisted contradictions that I worked so hard to lose
I'm safer here inside my submarine
Cause when I'm underwater you can't throw words at me
I'm just learning how to leave
Ohio
I don't need Hollywood
I don't need New York heights or Las Vegas lights
I need Ohio
I've never even been there
But I'd rather fall asleep in an open field in Ohio
Ohio
Ohio
Ohio
Ohio
We're all growing up
And we're all dying
We're all growing up
And we're all trying
We're all growing up
And we're all dying
We're all growing up
And we're all trying
We're all growing up
And we're all dying
We're all growing up
And we're all trying
Ohio
I don't need Hollywood
I don't need New York heights or Las Vegas lights
I need Ohio
I've never even been there
But I'd rather fall asleep in an open field in Ohio
