Border Guard Called In Sick Today

from Will Power - I'm a kid forever on an audio cassette by Waiting Records

/

lyrics

It takes a scrawling on a bathroom wall to realize what I stand for, realize that my life must take a turn. Now this time I've criticized and I've spoke of something more, spoke of something real in this fantasy world. We spent that entire weekend lying out in the grass, singing songs about our histories and what is yet to be. There was something invigorating about those first days of spring, I found the joy of a midnight ride in the dirt on my barefeet. These days, they find us standing at the border, of everything we know, and all that life could be. If this isn't feeling right, there's something better. And it's for sure within our reach. I'm never gonna live in a place like this again. Soon I will be off to live with folks I've never met. All this time I've been other places in my mind, but the places I've called home, I could never forget. Staying up all night, reading books we couldn't understand and eating food with which our hearts and stomachs disagreed. There was something extraordinary about those first days of spring. I found the love of a life in the dirt on my barefeet. I know we've been on the road before. But this time, it's gonna be different. And I've said goodbye to towns before, but this departure's probably permanent. Everything honest, I'll keep. A piece of my heart, I will leave. From this coveted plague that follows me, I can't escape, but I'm gonna keep on running.
