State Line

My whole life can be seen in one say
I was fifteen when I loaded my things
Stole my folks car one night
To shaky sides of the same coin
To drown in that house our to drown out in the world
I drove to the state line
I made it as far as the state line
No farther could I go
No guts
Now I’m fourty four years old
And I can’t make it across
And I still can’t escape that home
And no place do I find a home
I’m ashamed but it’s true
Ashamed but it’s true
Forever stuck on the state line
While everyone else is blurring by
Forever stuck on the state line
While everyone else is passing through
Everyone else is blowing by
Forever stuck at the state line
