new england

When I wake up, I'll be headed for New England And I'll wonder why I ever left again But by the evening I'll be stormy on the docks Of old Bar Harbor Chucking rocks and dark thoughts out into the bay Feels like each attempt I make to try To hide myself gives way to find The emptiness that I was running from And every tool I take becomes a crutch Cause I use it way too much And now I'm walking with no legs But when I wake up, I'll be ready for New England And I'll promise myself I can keep my head Then somewhere out between the highway mile markers And Bar Harbor It'll hit me how alone I really am And all the vistas freeze The distant peaks and autumn trees Are all reduced to pixels passing through the HUD And it's like the moment that a tool becomes a crutch Cause I need you way too much And I can't see the world without you, babe Oh no I don't want to fall in love I don't want to follow us
