Language Arts - When I Leave This Town lyrics

I started a new book And then I moved house Picked a new city Held my mouth I didn't say much Nothing's left to be told After that night The veins in my temples exploded I took flight Many times before My head it felt like cracking My heart became a door I think I served a purpose But no one will ever know I'll think of these chapters fondly And I'll go where I will grow But who is going to love you When I'm no longer around? And what will become of me When I leave this town? I hear a distant whistling Like it is calling me home Sleep sweet to loons calling In this palindrome ‘Cause every time I sleep I see it, it is not really there Every time I sing I get really scared Feeling tired From this bed in the sky Flounder in wonder Like I am a child A new beginning Become a new place With a new place full of stuff Becomes a new face Then landing on arms of friends My armor fell too And it landed down there With the fireworks crew Becoming full blown motion With many mixed matches Simplicity is a state of mind That fumigates and ashes And the sound of it all As it sets fire It blasts out the stories As my eyes tire It forms and makes shapes Of sailing away words and vowels And then I take flight all over Like a flock of midnight owls
