Have You Ever is the second track and first actual song in Americana. Basically, the lyrics are easy to understand because it describes feelings that we all know in our life. It describes how he doesn’t have the control of his life and no one really knows him inside, they are just faces in the crowd...
[Intro]
Falling, I'm falling
Falling, I'm falling
[Verse 1]
Have you ever walked through a room
But it was more like the room passed around you
Like there was a leash around your neck that pulled you through?
Have you ever been at some place
Recognizing everybody's face
Until you realized that there was no one there you knew?
[Chorus]
(Well, I know)
Some days my soul's confined
And out of mind, sleep forever
(I know)
Some days I'm so outshined
And out of time, have you ever?
[Intro]
Falling, I'm falling
Falling, I'm falling
[Verse 2]
Have you ever buried your face in your hands
'Cause no one around you understands
Or has the slightest idea what it is that makes you be?
Have you ever felt like there was more
Like someone else was keeping score
And what could make you whole was simply out of reach?
[Chorus]
(Well, I know)
Someday I'll try again
And not pretend, this time forever
(I know)
Someday I'll get it straight
But not today, have you ever?
[Intro]
Falling, I'm falling
Falling, I'm falling
[Chorus]
(Falling, I'm falling)
Some days, my soul's confined
And out of mind, sleep forever
(Falling, I'm falling)
Some days, my darkest friend
Is me again, have you ever?
(Falling, I'm falling)
Someday, I'll try again
And not pretend, this time forever
Someday, I'll get it straight
But not today, have you ever?
[Outro]
When the truth walks away, everybody stays
’Cause the truth about the world is that crime does pay
So if you walk away, who is gonna stay?
'Cause I'd like to think the world is a better place
When the truth walks away, everybody stays
’Cause the truth about the world is that crime does pay
So if you walk away, who is gonna stay?
Cause I'd like to make the world be a better place
When the truth walks away, everybody's stays
’Cause the truth about the world is that crime does pay
So if you walk away, who is gonna stay?
'Cause I'd like to think the world is a better place
I'd like to leave the world as a better place
I'd like to think the world
