I'm sick and tired
Of pickin' these thorns from my leg
You've got me sittin' here
Lost in my own head
But did it really have to go down this way?
Or was there somethin'
Clever that I could have said?
You know the weather outside
Well, it just ain't right
And it's nothin', I'm just cloudy and blue
Well, things are gonna change
And I don't want to see it rain on you
Well, I don't need no pills to calm down
Just need a minute
To put my feet back on the ground
Oh, the weight of gold
Is a sight to behold
And so I practice with lead
But maybe that's the reason
Why I've got thorns in my leg
Oh, but ooh, I've got somethin' to lose
Don't you say that I am alone
You've had your fun
Now please won't you come back home?
Well, I heard you've been movin' around
Yeah, two feet be kissin' the ground
And I sure as hell know, better than most
There's no sense in beating it down
So let's roll on down the river
Let's flow right into the sea
Where angels roam, we'll rustle our bones
Back to our home in the trees
And ooh, I'll be leavin' soon
Don't you say I'm goin' alone
You've had your fun
Now please won't you come back home?
You've had your fun
Now please won't you come back home?
You've had your fun
Now please won't you come back, home?
Look around this city
You must be out of your mind
It's only time now
Before it all comes down
Right back to the ground
Settle down now mama
You better run back home
Ain't gonna be wakin' up alone
Settle down now mama
You better run back home
Ain't gonna be wakin' up alone
Look around this city
You must be out of your mind
It's only time now
Before it all comes down
Right back to the ground
