The Surface

Niceties, pleasant ways I can see your face has changed Holding back, step away I need space to contemplate Where I come from And it doesn't even scratch the surface It's easy on your own And I'll figure it out There's no place like home And I wonder if it's even worth it When you're better off alone And it will never retain my love The seasons change, so do we Time and place, a losing streak Count the ways we all fall down Things seem great now we're not around Where I come from And it doesn't even scratch the surface It's easy on your own And I'll figure it out There's no place like home And I wonder if it's even worth it When you're better off alone And it will never retain my love The things we keep The mess we made It makes us who we are today The tongue in cheek The crying shame It makes us who we are today The things we keep The mess we made It makes us who we are today The tongue in cheek The crying shame It makes us who we are Today (The things we keep, the mess we made, it makes us who we are) Today (The tongue in cheek, the crying shame, it makes us who we are) Where I come from And it doesn't even scratch the surface It's easy on your own And I'll figure it out There's no place like home And I wonder if it's even worth it When you're better off alone And it will never retain my love Where I come from And it doesn't even scratch the surface It's easy on your own And I'll figure it out There's no place like home And I wonder if it's even worth it When you're better off alone And it will never retain my love
