Garrett Scott Dowell - Anywhere But Here Lyrics

Step into the light
With my hands on my head
Walk toward the sound of your voice
Or I'm dead
Turned out my pockets
Dropped to my knees
Crossed all my fingers
And waited for
You to come
Sodium
Street lamps in rows stretching over
The avenues
The evening news
Rolling their stingers
I'm praying for Anywhere
Anywhere
But here
Don't know how it happened
Don't know what I'd done
Don't know how I came to be
Holding the gun
I asked you for something
That I threw in a field
Climbed in my Chrysler
And drove it to
Kingdom come
Sodium
Street lamps in rows stretching over
The avenues
The evening news
Rolling their stingers
I'm praying for Anywhere
Anywhere
But here
And when the tires hit the bridge
Time began to slow
All the sirens you could give
All your ducks were in a row
In the kitchen, I'm at home
Doing the dishes and praying
For you to come
Sodium
Street lamps in rows stretching over
The avenues
The aerial view
Rolling your picture
I'm praying for Anywhere
Anywhere
Anywhere
Anywhere
Anywhere
Anywhere
But here
