I'm better off when my home's gone
Let down in days until I rise
Bend the wind low, watch the rain go
Rain down on me, dazed from the purple skies
I'm better off when my home's gone
Let down in days until I rise
Bend the wind low, watch the rain go
Rain down on me, dazed from the purple skies
So let me die in the summertime
So let me die in the summertime
Tore up my time while lost in high places
With bruised eyes and knees that swell up in the summer breeze
With Mary lost in the parking lot with children they forgot
Dragged to the end of the road to loose ground as fires burn
Led by mercy as the wind dies to love me and leave me left
Shackled to the road
Shackled to the road
I'm better off when my home's gone
Let down in days until I rise
Bend the wind low, watch the rain go
Rain down on me, dazed from the purple skies
I'm better off when my home's gone
Let down in days until I rise
Bend the wind low, watch the rain go
Rain down on me, dazed from the purple skies
So let me die in the summertime
So let me die in the summertime
