Collected Ramblings
A Glimpse Into The Daily Runnings Of Your Typical Teenager.
Step Out The Front Door Like A Ghost
Into The Fog Where No One Notices
The Contrast Of White On White.
And In Between The Moon And You
The Angels Get a Better View
Of The Crumbling Difference Between Wrong And Right.

I Walk In The Air Between The Rain.
Through Myself And Back Again
Where? I Don't Know.
Maria Says She's Dying.
Through The Door I Hear Her Crying
Why? I Don't Know.

Around Here...We Always Stand Up Straight.
Around Here...Something Radiates.

Maria Came From Nashville With A Suitcase In Her Hand
She Said She'd Like To Meet A Boy Who Looks Like Elvis.
And She Walks Along The Edge Of Where The Ocean Meets The Land
Just Like She's Walking On A Wire In The Circus.
She Parks Her Car Outside Of My House
Takes Her Clothes Off
Says She's Close To Understanding Jesus.
She Knows She's More Than Just A Little Misunderstood.
She Has Trouble Acting Normal When She's Nervous.

Around Here...We're Carving Out Our Names.
Around Here...We All Look The Same
Around Here...We Talk Just Like Lions
But We Sacrifice Like Lambs
Around Here...She's Slipping Through My Hands

Sleeping Children Better Run Like The Wind
Out Of The Lightning.
Mama's Little Baby Better Get Herself In
Out Of The Lightning.

She Says 'It's Only In My Head.'
She Says 'Shhhhh...I Know It's Only In My Head.'
But The Girl In The Car In The Parking Lot
Says 'Man, You Should Try To Take A Shot
Can't You See My Walls Are Crumbling?'

Then She Looks Up At The Building.
Says She's Thinking Of Jumping.
She Says She's Tired Of Life,
She Must be Tired Of Something.

Around Here...She's Always On My Mind.
Around Here, Hey Man Got Lots Of Time.
Around Here We're Never Sent To Bed Early,
And Nobody Makes Us Wait.
Around Here We Stay Up Very, Very, Very, Very Late...

I Can't See Nothing, Nothing Around Here.
Will You Catch If I'm Falling?
Will You Catch Me If I'm Falling?
Will You Catch Me Because I'm Falling Down On You?
I Said I'm Under The Gun, Around Here.
I'm Innocent, I'm Under The Gun Around Here.

And I Can't See Nothing.
Nothing Around Here...


-Counting Crows, 'Around Here'
