The light's pourin' through my window dressin' everything all up in gold and I don't know what I'm doing here I left the howlin' winds and the prairies to find some kind of idea Am I full or am I empty? Well maybe I just like hurtin', buildin' up walls and then rippin' them down with my own disposition My own hurtin' masks the way I feel about the world and all the little things I wish were different And I've been grievin' since I left old Carolina The bars on my window didn't leave me safe at night Now I've chased your love 'cause I thought it might feel woolen Like a draft on a damn cold winter's night Well some things they just like leavin', like people love and money and I don't know what it's all runnin' from Perhaps the fear of splittin' open, showin' some parts of yourself that you don't even really want to know And I've been grieving since I left old Carolina The bars on my window didn't leave me safe at night Now I've chased your love 'cause I thought it might feel woolen Like a draft on a damn cold winter's night Like a draft on a damn cold winter's night
