Traveling through these mountains far from home
Looking for the reason, looking for the road
Alone and in good company
I found a way to make myself part of these towns
And all the while these birds find their way into the rafters
They don't know what they're after
Like I can't reach you because you're too far away
You keep losing pieces that I just can't carry
I wish we'd all stop spinning
'Cause these words weigh nothing when you're too far away
Never seen these turns we're taking, never been this way before
Couldn't wrap myself around, it could take miles away
I'm not stuck along between these trips and choices
Gather several moments and leave songs behind
And all the while these birds find their way into the rafters
They don't know what they're after
Like I can't reach you because you're too far away
You keep losing pieces that I just can't carry
I wish we'd all stop spinning
'Cause these words weigh nothing when you're too far away
Keep myself in comfort with the things I'm taking home
More jaded late nights help the mornings come
But I can't hear the voice that loves me I'm wrapped inside my memories
Far from home
And all the while these birds find their way into the rafters
They don't know what they're after
Like I can't reach you because you're too far away
You keep losing pieces that I just can't carry
I wish we'd all stop spinning
'Cause these words weigh nothing when you're too far away
