Jodie Cay - Out of My Head Lyrics

Chrysanthemums and cigarettes are calling me home
Weaving my way back down a familiar road
Ever since I hit the pavement I've walked all alone
And the shade from skyscrapers just makes you feel cold and alone

And eventually the numbness subsides
And your feet start to sting
And the pipes and exhausts and the babies will all start to sing
And you begin to find warmth in the unfamiliar things
But each crack in the sidewalk will tug at your heartstrings

I wanna run through my neighborhood
'Till it's dark outside
Praying for forgiveness
Under gold streetlights
Too young to be numb
You'll find me when the morning comes
I'm coming home undone

I just wanna feel alive
I wanna know how it feels
To be
More than alive
I'm gonna do the dirty work
And know how it feels to survive
I wanna feel
Alive

I've been out of my mind I've been out of my head
It took me nearly a season to get out of my bed
Until I finally felt the warmth of the sun on my chest
These concrete angels always find you in the end

I wanna run through my neighborhood
'Till it's dark outside
Praying for forgiveness
Under gold streetlights
Too young to be numb
You'll find me when the morning comes
I'm coming home undone

I just wanna feel alive
I wanna know how it feels
To be
More than alive
I'm gonna do the dirty work
And know how it feels to survive
I wanna feel
Alive

I've been lost and
I've been lonely
But I can dance with
Myself only
I've been lost and
I've been lonely
But getting better
Looks good on me

I'm getting better better, better
I'm getting better better, better
I'm getting better better, better
Better, better
Better, better
Better, better

I wanna run through my neighborhood
'Till it's dark outside
Praying for forgiveness
Under gold streetlights
Too young to be numb
You'll find me when the morning comes
I'm coming home undone

I just wanna feel alive
I wanna know how it feels
To be
More than alive
I'm gonna do the dirty work
And know how it feels to survive
I wanna feel
I wanna feel
I wanna feel
I wanna feel
I wanna feel
I wanna feel
