I've been way up there
Been in the North for a long time
It drives you crazy
When I packed my bags
I said I'm in it for the long ride
And I'll be back when the cheers come
I got a ticket for December I don't know if I'll make home for Christmas
They say there's bombs falling from the sky and I don't even know what to tell them
I'm a mountain boy in my mother's town
A city boy on my father's side
And I've been pulled so thin I almost fell off the spectrum
They tell you that I'm not human a barbaric fool
That I can't read or that I'm not like you
Well sometimes it may be true
But baby I found out that I come
From the wrong side of the news
There's nothing that you can't hide with a smile
They've been living like that for a while
When you're living the city life
It's hard to make it back in the wild
But if I told you how it is my dear
Then your problems would disappear
I got a ticket for December I don't know if I'll make home for Christmas
They say there's bombs falling from the sky and I don't even know what to tell them
I'm a mountain boy in my mother's town
A city boy on my father's side
And I've been pulled so thin I almost fell off the spectrum
They tell you that I'm not human a barbaric fool
That I can't read or that I'm not like you
Well sometimes it may be true
But baby I found out that I come
From the wrong side of the news
Sometimes it may be true
But baby I found out that I come
From the wrong side of the news
