This is the second track off the Everybody Knows EP. This song deals with the journey back to who or what one was and the desire to find answers along the way.

lyrics

Chorus:
Said I’m on my way back home,
I don’t know where I’ve been
Or if I’m going again.
Said I’m on my way back home,
I don’t know where I’ve been
Or if I’m going again.

Verse 1:
Excuse me sir, excuse me excuse me
I spent so long to find her only somewhere to lose me
And I tried to heed the signs but they only confused me
And now I’m lost in the darkness just struggling to see
It seems that all I’ve done is run after the past and sacrifice what we could be
I sacrificed myself for what you thought I should be
But neither of us foresaw just what would be
That’s not how I planned it, feel as though I was damned
It seems the girl of my dreams ran schemes behind the scenes
Just to leave me in a damn pit
You Spartan kicked me quickly
Yo girl, you did me filthy
Our empire couldn’t get higher, yeah you tried to guilt me
In a feeble attempt to mask how wrong you did me
Now I’m in panic mode, oh no there I go
With this too heavy a load down this long road
Just tryin to find my way back home y’all

Chorus:
Said I’m on my way back home,
I don’t know where I’ve been
Or if I’m going again.
Said I’m on my way back home,
I don’t know where I’ve been
Or if I’m going again.

Verse 2:
Yeah, Verse 2 ‘cause I just don’t know who to turn to
I’ve lost count of how many bridges I’ve burned through
I think the last number I had was a hundred
Now I’m going way past 100 on a highway getting blunted
With a honey, thinkin back on it like who was me?
Who was I before the fame and the awards?
And all the adoration galore, but I think I lost myself
What am I doing it for?
I lost my way, I lost my way
I’m takin way too many pain killers, got my mind in a daze
And if I don’t have em I’m in a rage
But I’m so messed up, can’t read the words on my page.
I’m on the long road to ruin,
I’m feelin like Bobby Orr, yeah playin for the Bruins
So if to the victors goes the spoils
I’d rather have the crown, call me royal

Chorus:
Said I’m on my way back home,
I don’t know where I’ve been
Or if I’m going again.
Said I’m on my way back home,
I don’t know where I’ve been
Or if I’m going again.

Bridge:
Baby, can’t you see that I’m just straight out spinning out?
You got me losing all my mind!
And if I don’t have you to help me through this craziness that I’ve been through
I don’t know what I’ll find!

Chorus:
Said I’m on my way back home,
I don’t know where I’ve been
Or if I’m going again.
Said I’m on my way back home,
I don’t know where I’ve been
Or if I’m going again.
