Supertramp

I wanna climb to the top of a broken-down building
And watch the debris fall into the bay
We can watch the sunset together
We can pretend it’ll all be okay
I wanna burn all my earthly possessions
Drive north and change my name
They’ll find my body in a broken down bus in Alaska
Forever the family shame

Falling asleep standing up on my commute
Daydreaming between customers at work
There’s gotta be more to life than this
Watch the sun come up from freeway traffic
And wonder if this is all I’ll ever be
Rooted in place forever
Always telling only the same story

They say we’re all defined by our hometowns
No matter how far away you run
Did my grandparents have the same nightmares
Before they crossed the border alone?

I don’t want to feel like this anymore
I don’t want to live like this anymore
I wanna get on my bike and ride ‘til I disappear into nothing
I don’t want to feel like this anymore
I don’t want to live like this anymore
Just wanna drive forever in a van across the country
I don’t want to feel like this anymore
I don’t want to live like this anymore
I wanna create just one thing that amounts to something
I don’t want to feel like this anymore (feel like this anymore)
I don’t want to live like this anymore (live like this anymore)
I don’t wanna hate myself anymore (ate myself anymore)
So I won’t
