Lost, Scared, and Tired Songtext
von Jared & the Mill

Rode south before the winter
I took shelter in your eyes
Pushed all the way to Brooklyn
Didn′t ask for nothing
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
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 "boy you're looking skinny,
"Should you really go this hard?
"You′re doin′ it for nothing,
"These risky miles you're truckin′,
"Are crazy as they are far"

Well I know that there's a reason
Why the rains keep rollin′ in
The creosote is bloomin'
And 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


But I'm strung out and foregone
And 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
Because I can only go so long
One day I′ll get to dying
So the thing we're trying
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
