counting crows - round here - live at chelsea studios, new york/1997 lyrics

step out the front door like a ghost
into the fog where no one notices
the contrast of white on white
and in between the moon and you
the angels get a better view
of the crumbling difference between wrong and right
i walk in the air between the rain
through myself and back again
where? i don’t know
maria says she’s dying
through the door, i hear her crying
why? i don’t know
’round here we always stand up straight
’round here something radiates
maria came from nashville with a suitcase in her hand
she said she’d like to meet a boy who looks like elvis
and she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
just like she’s walking on a wire in the circus
she parks her car outside of my house, takes her clothes off
says she’s close to understanding jesus
she knows she’s more that just a little misunderstood
she has trouble acting normal when she’s nervous
’round here we’re carving out our names
’round here we all look the same
’round here we talk just like lions
but we sacrifice like lambs
’round here she’s slipping through my hands
sleeping children got to run like the wind
out of the lightning dream
mama’s little baby better get herself in
out of the lightning
she says, “it’s only in my head.”
she says, “shh, i know it’s only in my head.”
but the girl on the car in the parking lot
says: “man, you should try to take a shot
can’t you see my walls are crumbling.”
then she looks up at the building
and says she’s thinking of jumping
she says she’s tired of life;
she must be tired of something
’round here she’s always on my mind
’round here (hey man) i got lots of time
’round here we’re never sent to bed early
and n0body makes us wait
’round here we stay up very very very very late
i can’t see nothing, nothing
around here
you catch me if i’m falling
you catch me if i’m falling
will you catch me because i’m falling down on here
i said ” i’m under the gun”
’round here
oh man i said “i’m under the gun”
’round here
and i can’t see nothin’, nothin’
’round here
