Travelin' Light

You've been standin' on the corner for a thousand nights

Ifs the slowest corner known to man

Watchin' strange faces passin' 'neath the lights

With a bottle wavin' in your hand

You got just enough money for some nothin' to go

It ain't exactly what you planned

So lonesome that you can't even say hello

And no one seems to understand

Chorus

So you're a mixed up kid, come on and join the crowd

The ones that only fit where they're not allowed

Out on the streets and you're feelin' blue

travelin' light

With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through

A hole in your soul where the wind blows through

You wandered away from your childhood home

Nobody cared to trace

the tracks you laid

You traveled by night

and you traveled alone

Came to rest at a penny arcade

Well, the last shots over

on a Saturday night You wake up in the beam

of a cop's flashlight

He asks you who you are as if you

knew or you cared

He asks you where you live

and you say nowhere

Chorus

I don't know where I got it

but, I got it the same

It's a feelin' that'll rip you apart

It follows me around

like a part of my name

Like I'm born with a time bomb

instead of a heart

Chorus
