My eyes
 
 Are tracing patterns carved into the skies over New Mexico
 
 It makes me want to ride home
 
  
  And I've lost touch with everything that means anything to me
 
 My friends always forgive me
 
 We become too bored and quick,
 
 A little clever, a little numb
 
 We could a stare a lover in the eyes and lie ...
 
 "Yes, I don't feel anything at all"
  
 
 And I could say
 
 That I have everything I need right now
 
 I hope you've packed your items
 
 But it's weight ...
 
 The weight of all my emptiness comes crashing down on me
  
 
 I'm terrified
 
 I can't recollect the faces that once kept me warm
 
 They wait back home
  
 
 Time could sustain me
 
 I used to so obvious with all my words, oh,
 
 But at least I was honest!
 
 Ahhh-ohhh
  
 
 And I could say
 
 That I have everything I need right now
 
 I hope you've packed your items
 
 But its weight
 
 The weight of all my emptiness comes crashing down on me
  
 
 Tennis courts and makers and paperback best sellers
 
 I want to be home
 
 I want to be myself again
  
 
 Tennis courts and makers and paperback best sellers
 
 I want to be home
 
 I want to be myself
  
 
 And I could say
 
 That I have everything I need right now
 
 I hope you've packed your items
 
 But it's weight ...
 
 The weight of all my emptiness comes crashing down on me
