I will never find my true home (rewrite 1)

 

I was born in the state of confusion/ I was raised in a state of grace/ I've searched the wide world over/ but I still don't know my place/ it doesn't  matter where I wander/ makes no difference if I roam/ I will always look over yonder/ I will never find my true home

I will never find my true home...

all my life I've been so lonesome/ the one who never fits in/ I stand away from the crowd/ uncomfortable in my own skin/ every place I ever go/ I'm always on my own/ just another stranger/ I will never find my true home

I will never find my true home...

maybe tomorrow/ I'll find someone to trust/ but my words are all uneven/ stranded in the dust/ soon I'll head out somewhere/ where my sins are all unknown/ I know one thing for certain/ I will never find my true home/ I will never find my true home

I will never find my new home... 

ordinary day

 

it was an ordinary day/ like every other day/ I drove my daughter to school/ then I drove away/ to my job in the city/ where I worked till 5/ the weekend was upon me/ I was glad to be alive

so I went to the liquor store/ bought a six pack of beer/ walked out to my car/ without an ounce of fear/ when the officers saw me/ and came from behind/ I hadn't done nothing/ I was just passing the time

woke up this morning

 

I woke up this morning/ no way to hold my head but down/ I woke up this morning/ no way to hold my head but down/ I know I don't belong here/ but I'm going to take a look around

I woke up this morning/ no way to feel but sad/ I woke up this morning/ no way to feel but sad/ I try to feel good/ but  I always end up feeling bad
