When I’m sitting on the porch
Facing Brooks Avenue
Gazing up at the same stars
That are facing you
In the same dream, sometimes it seems
I am here with you
Thousands of miles disappear within our view
Cause I’m convinced they made the tall buildings
So we can’t connect
Take the El into the city, breakin’ our necks
Thousands of people seeking a dream
Facing a bullet proof vest
But out here, it’s so clear
Flying wanderless, flying wanderless
Flying wanderless, yes
When I’m sitting passenger side
Taking the deepest breaths
This once was a dream, now it’s unrest
Escaping the tar, the brick and the mortar
And the damn heat index
Some will judge and they will scorn
The life I think is best
Cause I’m convinced they made the tall buildings
So we can’t connect
Take the El into the city, breakin’ our necks
Thousands of people seeking a dream
Facing a bullet proof vest
But out here, it’s so clear
Flying wanderless, flying wanderless
Flying wanderless, yes
And it’s the bullet I took and you’d take for me
And it’s the song I write for the song that you couldn’t sing
And it’s the words I wrote and the words that stay in me
And it’s the bullet I took and you’d take for me
And it’s the song I write for the song that you couldn’t sing
And it’s the words I wrote and the words that stay in me
When I’m sitting on the porch, facing Brooks Avenue...
