Oslo

I woke up this morning with dead leaves inside my bed

You said "You're better off just where you are

Than to be stuck in my head

You've got to leave it all behind you

And give yourself up to chance"

So I gave myself to chanceAnd I packed a little suitcase

Brushed my teeth and washed my hands

I'd been bluffing here for years

And now I think it's time I showed my hand

I'm going to move to New York City

And set the sky on fire

Oh don't the night look so alive

With it's desire to cross the River Jordan?

But it just don't feel the same

When I came home Friday morning

With no one but myself to blame

See I have trouble with numbers

And paying the ones I owe

I put what I had left in the pocket of my coat

I went out to find a liquor store

And make a home there in the snow

Give myself a little shelter from the coldI was bound here by my choices

Oh my god how I felt so ashamed

Still I hoped that you might join us

And take this little light of ours out on paradeI used to look at others trying to find some way to grow

And now I just look around me

I'm going to reap the seeds I've sown

I try to picture myself in Oslo

But lord help me if I go

I've been running around

And I believe it's starting to show

So I'll cross the River Jordan

If it just don't feel the same

And I'm not home Friday morning

I'll have no one but myself to blame
