elliot pullen - the road i've set out on lyrics

i’m doing very well is what i say when people ask
how i been today and how i’ve been doing in the past
but lord i’ve been so weary trying to make it in this world
my future’s locked up in the snow and my soul’s been bought and sold

i’ve been building myself off of things i’ll never be
i have falsified and reconstructed my identity
tried writing songs about the future with a hopeful tw+ng
but they just don’t sound like something i would say

and this house has just gone up in flames
i am grasping at straws for someone else to blame
but the sparks that others lit were not thе start of this new dawn
this is just the road i’ve sеt out on

uncertainty is my companion in this world of woe
i’m not sure where i’m headed but i got a ways to go
i’ve romanticized and idealized this rambling way of life
i’m too young to be this acquainted with mortality and strife

and i been playing shows to living rooms no more than ten strong
the railroad tracks that call to me don’t go on for too long
i’m a drifter, i’m a grifter, i’m an outlaw with no foal
but i’m climbing out of this six+foot+deep hole

and this house has just gone up in flames
i am grasping at straws for someone else to blame
but the sparks that others lit were not the start of this new dawn
this is just the road i’ve set out on
i been torn apart and put together more times than i can count
i have followed paths that others made and they’ve led me to the ground
the lonesome wind that beckons me is like a siren’s call
but there just might be more hidden in that song

and freedom might be loneliness with a prettier name
oh won’t somebody help me please find something new to say
because i’ve been finding different ways to say the same three godd+mn words
and i’ve just started ending with a hopeful verse

and this house has just gone up in flames
i am grasping at straws for someone else to blame
but the sparks that others lit were not the start of this new dawn
this is just the road i’ve set out on

i’ve got coal and steel all a+coursing through my blood
but i need to go somewhere that i can see the sun
there i’ll write a happy song to sing and pay off all my debts
but that hopeful day just ain’t here quite yet

and this house has just gone up in flames
i am grasping at straws for someone else to blame
but the sparks that others made were not the start of this new dawn
this is just the road i’ve set out on
