lyrics

[Chorus]
There was a day when i could just run away
Just runaway and hide
but now i find that i'm trapped inside my mind
those days have died

Well i was hungry for my roots so sunday put on my boots
then i walked right past the church and hopped a train
(hopped a train)
Lord when that whistle blew
Aw who could not think' you
wailing for that suffering you became

Oh but when they found me breathing
bleeding' listless like a river
A roaming mind makes peace wit all it finds
But when i opened my eyes
buzzing tungsten made me blind
Fingers began to quiver
and teeth to grind

[Chorus]

My head is my home and these cell walls are made of bone
just give me something to believe in
Too thick to penetrate,
my brain is a maze with no way to escape
So pack your bags we're leaving
...we're leaving

Well, i went down south to speak with an executioner
To ask him how he does what he does
He said son
It's that one
simple revelation
Laughed it off said because son
...just because

[Chorus]

My head is my home and these cell walls are made of bone
just give me something to believe in
Too thick to penetrate,
my brain is a maze with no way to escape
So pack your bags we're leaving
...we're leaving

We're Leavin'
