Walmgate Stray by These Five Years Lyrics
Why can’t I box up all my feelings with my possessions?
I pack the car, to drive away
To burst the boy stuck in the bubble
Is this me starting over?
I’m on my own again
I can't hide here anymore
It's not that I wasted those years
It's just that they are all gone now
And I only hope some day
That I’ll find comfort in somewhere like this
But this place is not mine
It was never mine to call home
I walk down Micklegate
Pacing the concrete with repetitive footsteps
This nostalgia tints my cheeks
My past looks back on me
And this retrospective loneliness won’t let me be
The solitude that I'll find in the west
Can't make me go astray
I’m not ready to go
I pack the car, to drive away
To burst the boy stuck in the bubble
Is this me starting over?
I’m on my own again
I can't hide here anymore
It's not that I wasted those years
It's just that they are all gone now
And I only hope some day
That I’ll find comfort in somewhere like this
But this place is not mine
It was never mine to call home
I walk down Micklegate
Pacing the concrete with repetitive footsteps
This nostalgia tints my cheeks
My past looks back on me
And this retrospective loneliness won’t let me be
The solitude that I'll find in the west
Can't make me go astray
I’m not ready to go
