Homesick for a home I don’t have
What a shame I didn’t fit in cause I don’t look like them
I was trying and trying to crawl out of my skin
I was livin with my parents
Sleeping in that car
Trying to plant roots in a concrete floor
Waking up in cities
I’ve never heard of before
And I’ve been thinkin
Old me
Left my heart in Missouri
Never felt this alive and
For the first time in my life
I need a minute to breathe in
Slowly
Left the pine for the palm trees
Never felt this alive and
For the first time in my life
I’ve been dying to sit still
Snuck out for the homecoming crown
Didn’t give a damn if I win knew I’d never see them again
Looking back I wouldn’t do it any different
Built too many glass ceilings
I’m responsible for
Died upon that hill of letting no one close
Changing all the ways I’ve behaved before
Running through the fields and
And I’ve been thinking
Old me
Left my heart in Missouri
Never felt this alive and
For the first time in my life
I need a minute to breathe in
Slowly
Left the pine for the palm trees
Never felt this alive and
For the first time in my life
I’ve been dying to sit still
I took another trip around the Sun
And watch traffic go by
Old me
Left my heart in Missouri
Never felt this alive and
For the first time in my life
I need a minute to breathe in
