I took a trip to Mars, oh yeah I played my cards
You’ve got a backbone
It took two thousand tries for me to realize
I’ve got no real home
Those were the salad days, I’ve got no more disgrace
I think I’ve outgrown
I, I am gone
And you won’t
see me again
Off, off to Mars
And I’m not
coming back
Needed to relocate, slow down and rehydrate
Go at a new pace
And fly up way too high, into a new disguise
That no one would know
But you remained with those, old ways and status quos
Always knew that I would go
I, I am gone
And you won’t
see me again
Off, off to Mars
And I’m not
coming back

Long gone are the old ways
Pessimistic and foolish lonely haze
I was lost, I was trapped inside the day
Where they always would keep me
Where they no longer reach me
I'm already gone out of view
Took some time for my heart to break through
You were right
This world ain't so cruel
Took a train to the bottom of the country
Took my pain and a pen to write a melody
Paris, France and Chicago distant memory
Go ahead and teach me
Go ahead try to reach me
I'm already gone out of view
Took some time, I grew too big for these shoes
In the light burned my tongue, blew a fuse
Painted new hues
I'm already gone out of view
Took some time for my heart to break through
You were right
This world ain't so
I'm already gone out of view
Took some time for my heart to break through
You were right
This world ain't so cruel

I Know What I've Found

Most of the time I just read off a line and it's nothing new, it's been heard before
Most of the time I laugh and I joke, and I drink and I smoke till I'm nervous no more
Most of the time I don't pick up a pen and put my thoughts into song
Most of the time I don't face up to facts and look around at what's actually gone on
I’ll come to your town
Yes I’ll come around
Most of the time a coward a fool, eating the meals I don’t know how to make
Most of the time I’m just pretending to know how to speak, but I can’t pronunciate
Most of the time my words don’t make sense, incomplete on the page
But if nobody gets it, yeah nobody gets it, I just won’t care anyway
I’ll come to your town
Yes I’ll come around
Despite what they say
I know what I've found
I’ll come to your town
Yes I’ll come around
Despite what they say
I know what I've found
