Homesick Son

Somewhere out west you might find
Someone better than I am
If I ever leave your mind
You’ve been gone too long
My homesick son
In the land of Greyhound dreams
You must grab it while you can
Nothing’s ever what it seems
Are you that strong
My homesick son?
And the ciphers you meet
On the roads and the rails
And the traces of love
In the clues and the trails
Even in your best disguise
I can tell there’s something wrong
Hell is other people’s lives
You knew all along
My homesick son
