Birdnest - Nomad Lyrics

I got into my car again, and put my foot down to the ground
And I said, you will never see me again
I took my shoes and my old coat, left the rest and headed north
But when I saw my footprints in the snow
I don't know
Where it is I'm heading
But I know
Its far away from here
I didn't look back but said goodbye, caught the train and saw the sky
Grow so big that I lost sight of where I was
I got the courage to turn down every sound that I had found
Could drown out every anxious noise, and reminds me that
I am alone
On this pale blue planet
And we're alone
In the universe
If you wanna know everything, then I'll tell you everything
But you don't really want to know, you wouldn't be here if you knew
That I know fully well, that I do it to myself
And no matter how far I go, I won't grow until I look at my self
I am a nomad by my own choice, without a gun without a voice
I've spent 40 years in the sand wondering where I am
Because no matter who I anoint, or where I wake up I disappoint
Myself I know I'll never find a place that I can
Call my home
Inside this city
Until I find home
Inside myself
If you wanna know everything, then I'll tell you everything
But you don't really want to know, you wouldn't be here if you knew
That I know fully well, that I do it to myself
And no matter how far I go, I won't grow until I look at my self
If you wanna know everything, then I'll tell you everything
But you don't really want to know, you wouldn't be here if you knew
That I know fully well, that I do it to myself
And no matter how far I go, I won't grow until I look at my self
