I used to think to be all by myself would make me stronger But all that running around it only wore me down So when it came time to get mine and take flight I was unsound I could reach no height and I ran aground I ran aground The complicated question of where you're from Depends on where we are when you ask Doesn't really matter where I'm from Every time I lift off I land I used to think to be all by myself would make me stronger But all that running around it only wore me down So when it came time to get mine and take flight I was unsound I could reach no height and I ran aground I ran aground I am from a long line of lonely men With deep set eyes and secretive hearts Far too familiar with abandonment Nothing special, set completely apart I used to think to be all by myself would make me stronger But all that running around it only wore me down So when it came time to get mine and take flight I was unsound I could reach no height and I I ran aground Oh, to the ground I could reach no height and I I ran aground Straight to the ground The stony ground I could reach no height and I I can only see you in stark relief All the details obscured I never seen what your mama seen and I Ain’t heard the voices you heard I used to think to be all by myself would make me stronger But all that running around it only wore me down (It wore me down) So when it came time to get mine and take flight I was unsound I could reach no height and I I used to think I could reach those heights but I ran aground I used to think I could I used to think that I could I used to think I could reach those heights but I ran aground I used to think I could But I ran aground I ran aground Straight to the ground now I could reach no height and I I ran aground Straight to the ground The stony ground I could reach no height and I I ran aground
