Track 12 of "Somewhere You' Rather Be" by Cody J. Martin
lyrics
Take me by the hand
Let us dance while we walk
Lost inside the tone
Composed by voices that can't talk
And take some pictures of me
While I decide who I am
And I'll be your little freak
Dressed in drag and donned in dreams
And I'll lose myself to
This life of fun-house mirrors
Where no one can find me
But your voice can still kiss my ears
Cause I'd rather be someone
Who turns not to see
So I turn the darkness on
I found I lost myself in what's already gone
And I can't perceive
I'm drunken and drained
Enslaved to the streets
Where madly, all of you leap
Entranced in sequenced carousel kind of scenes
Where I lost myself
Sleepwalkin' to the edge of the world
Where reflections mean nothin'
But it's good to know that you're still my girl
Cause I'd love to be someone who lives
But I'm a no one who looks at life and sees
No matter where you are there's always somewhere you'd rather be
Yeah and I'll lose myself to
This life of fun-house mirrors
Where no one has found me
But your voice still kisses my ears
Cause I'd love to be someone who lives
But I'm a no one who looks at life and sees
No matter where you are there's always somewhere you'd rather be
Yeah, no matter where you are there's always somewhere you'd rather be
