I been standin' in a smoky kitchen 
Heating oil on a fryin' pan 
Burn marks on my hands 
In the other room a boy so patient 
Doesn't even wanna see me need 
But I gotta be free 
You make me feel so well-protected 
I don't even wanna go outside 
So afraid the sun is gonna 
Tell me something here ain't right 
Baby you're not gonna give me up 
You're just gonna give me better stuff 
You're just gonna give me something I can 
Sink my teeth in 
Lean your shoulders back and bear my load 
Give me something I can use for the road 
Lean your weight into me boy I wanna 
Sink my teeth in 
Drove the chevy across Pennsylvania 
Yeah I'm trekkin' it to Oregon 
Got my raincoat on 
All you see these days are billboards pulsing 
Telling me just what I need to fly 
Making myths of my sky 
Take me some place where I'm as naked 
Nothing but the very core of me 
And no matter how the wind blows 
That's where you can get it free 
(Chorus) 
Every night I spend on scratchy sheets 
Every morning I might miss the dawn 
I'm imagining you whispering there's somewhere I belong
