lyrics

I was just a little child,
Born in Philadelphia
I was almost there inside a car.

Father, you were far away
Mother, working everyday
Parents of my past
That I don’t want to hear about again.

I’m not the kind of person you can figure out
But we can try to understand in time.
I’m not the kind of person you can figure out
But we can try to understand in time.

Running to the Riverside
Hiding under Kelly Drive.
From the other kids who used to kick.

Maybe I was born to run
Maybe I just have no fun
Fall asleep before the party starts
I wake up all alone

You’re not the kind of person I can figure out
But I can try to understand your mind.
You’re not the kind of person I can figure out
But I can try to understand your mind.

This album is so great end-to-end, it's hard to pick a single track to suggest to folks. I always recommend that people check out Boomer, Mustang, and Flagey God to get them started. coreytree
