Vi Quillen - Issues of Current Affairs Lyrics

I just can't take the wheel and drive

Find why this crooked place would treat with death instead of life

I've lost my train of thought in water much more murky than her eyes

I've gotta leave this place or I'll be stuck

I knew you wouldn't make me run and hide
It's like you knew I was dying on the inside

Unknown of where you've gone
I miss my home

Taken back to the sticks and the wood
I couldn't do it even If I knew I should
Unknown of where she's gone
You can't keep me from my home

This place feels like a prison, held down by chains of my mind

Wondering what's wrong with the issues
I'll just say I'm fine

I don't know what put me here, or why always in a bind

Take the skin to peel it back, and see what I can find

Barely recognize my face I see you in every place
Walking with his arms around your crested shoulder line

Now that you're in my place
Gaze upon the sunken face
Time has not been kind to you my friend the drugs have not been kind

It makes me want to cry, instead I sit and wonder why?

Why must this crooked place treat you with death instead of life

Taken back through the past and the memories
Of all the times you were there for me

Or were you just using my kindness to make one giant fool out of me

This place feels like a prison, held down by chains of my mind

Wondering what's wrong with the issues
I'll just say I'm fine

I don't know what put me here, or why always in a bind

Take the skin to peel it back, and see what I find

I love you

I want to get away
I need to find my way back home

I don't know who I am
I'm not sure who I was before

I'm not being held in a prison, just by the chains in my mind

It's nothing more than pain I've felt for what feels like my whole life

I don't know what put me here, or why you're always in a bind

Take the sun to peel it back, and see what I can find

I loved you
