The Labyrinth
Driving from town to town
I learn these places names
Their streets, their people,
and learn to play their games
I grow to love the glow of the light
Entering the heart of the city at night
Ive never known comfort to the point where its my home
Ive never had friends to the point where im not alone
Praying and searching for the city my heart can reside
praying and searching let the pain to subside
New york Atlanta, Come sweep me away from
Costa mesa, Santa Ana, Anywhere would be okay
Even if for a night, I'm used to a short stay
All I've got is my heart, sorry i cant pay
This time I Dont feel welcome, could be I never was
My bags always packed, time to shake off the dust
I know Im young but Im looking for the open door
This dome can't be it, there has to be more
North Dakota, Michigan each stole my heart
I want a new state seems I need a fresh start
Some place where no one has seen my face
Some place where no one knows
My mistakes
Singing and dancing auditioned into my heart
But i should of seen shes trouble from the start
cant say i regret the time ive spent
From all of this my heart has been bent
Driving around no looking back
Driving around covering my tracks
Town to town escaping the past
Town to town out of the labyrinth
At last
