about

This was written in 1996 and still holds true. I was hoping to leave the place I was writing this song about. I dreamed of leaving it and I did finally leave. Then I returned there and missed it. Now I have gone where I dreamed I would go and I only want to be back there again, without the pining for something different or "better". There is no better. With the curse of a sentimental personality, as time progresses we will miss wherever we have been regardless of whether we stayed in one place or changed homes many times.

lyrics

Everclear

Picking stones
tossing dreams in rivers one by one
when you're alone
time can take it's course throughout the day
wait to play
with some other friends who never stayed
who knows what course your life would take
without lonely rooms?

(Chorus)
I've got only one more year
stranded here
I've got nothing left around here
but my everclear.

Take me home I want to see my old spot once again
writing poems
where no one needs to know what words I said
when I was a kid
they never seemed to listen much
to nothing more than my small talk
but the river heard me.

(Chorus x2)
