Homesick Son
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Somewhere out west you might find
Someone better than I am
If I ever leave your mind
You've been gone too long
My homesick son
In the land of Greyhound dreams
You must grab it while you can
Nothing's ever what it seems
Are you that strong
My homesick son?
And the ciphers you meet
On the roads and the rails
And the traces of love
In the clues and the trails
Even in your best disguise
I can tell there's something wrong
Hell is other people's lives
You knew all along
My homesick son
