It's not the road we used to know
They tore some buildings down 
The traffic's like a pack of dogs

There's fewer trees, windows, fleas 
There's concrete on the lawn
There's people here but you are gone 

And I find still swimming through time
Afraid some days I've reached the shore

"Make yourself free"
Man said back to me 
Now my heart is like an open door

And the road finally gave me back
But I don't think I'll unpack 
Because I'm not sure if I live here any more

It's not my weight that makes me faint
or the sugar in my blood
but the way these strangers stand so close

They say my name like a guessing game
"Is that really you?" 
No, I don't think it ever was

In the spring 
When the world's turning green 
I only think about the fall
The frets on the board 
My progression of chords
Oh, how I want this to resolve

And the road finally gave me back
But I don't think I'll unpack 
Because I'm not sure if I live here any more

Now the road finally gave me back 
But I don't think I'll unpack 

Because I'm not sure if I live here 
No, I'm not sure if I live here 
No, I'm not sure if I live here 
Anymore
