I Finally Understand Why You Can'T Go Home Again

The sun never shines here in south town It’s only covered up by a dust of regrets and letdowns that i can never come clean of the shadows dance in the alleyways the darkness plays in the sun the children all searching to find a way for these shades of gray to be fun we've been living on the wrong side of town for way, way to long we are lost when we wake up still lost when we lay down and i think it's time we find our way out lately I’ve begun to notice things haven’t changed at all they are all the same as they were when I was small maybe my eyes have changed maybe my life is stained maybe I can’t understand why the colors drain and the sun dims maybe we've been living on the wrong side of town for way, way to long we are lost when we wake up still lost when we lay down and i think it's time we find our way out
