Lost, Scared & Tired Lyrics

Rode south before the winter
I took shelter in your eyes
Perched all the way to Brooklyn
I didn't ask for nothin'
But a place to spend the night
And I've never felt the winds blow
Like they do in Tennessee
They weren't all that strong
But carried them a song
That reminded you to me

But can you tell me
About the moon that rises earlier up north?
Or how the hills, where they sing
In the early part of spring?
Where the road goes on forever
Like the pictures that we see
When we're lost, scared and tired
When we run free

But they say, "Boy, you're looking skinny
Should you really go this hard?
You're doing it for nothin'
These risky milles you're truckin'
Are crazy as they are far"
Well, I know that there's a reason
Why the rains keep rolling in
The creosote is bloomin'
The wrens are busy croonin'
And the stark is turning in

But can you tell me?
About the moon that rises earlier up north?
Or how the hills, where they sing
In the early part of spring?
Where the road goes on forever
Like those pictures that you see
When we're lost, scared and tired
When we run free

Home
Home
Home

But I'm strung out and foregone, I feel all alone
And the winding of the river makes me wanna
Find my way back home, my way back home
My way back home, my way back home
My way back home, my way back home
My way back home, my way back home

Because I know it's not forever
'Cause I can only go so long
One day I'll get to dyin'
So the only thing worth tryin'
Is leaving you a song

But can you tell me?
About the moon that rises earlier up north?
Or how the hills, where they sing
In the early part of spring?
Where the road goes on forever
Like those pictures that you see
When we're lost, scared and tired
When we run free
Lost, scared and tired
When you can't see
Lost, scared and tired
When we run free
