lyrics

The world is always changing without me
It'd be funny if that ever wasn't so
my world will never change until I change mentality
how I think is all I'll ever know

Hey dad I'm losin' hair just like you
I guess we all play a victim to some fate
I learned a bunch from watchin' you do big and wonderful things
I learned a whole bunch more from your mistakes

I'm a home grown traveler
from Bangkok and to Rjúpnavellir
when I get up and leave
I never seem to mind
but I never leave my home behind

You can tell me that my home is where my heart is
you'll find me with my pillow on the ground
I was never one to think I'm ever floating
the earth accepts my every breath and sound

But when the boots of hollow people trudge carelessly
a splattered love lay nameless in their tracks
love has such a power and its found in everything
such is love it'll never fight you back

I'm a home grown traveler
from Bangkok and to Rjúpnavellir
when I get up and leave
I never seem to mind
but I never leave my home behind

Now the eagle flies just like other birds do
the eagles flyin' closest to the sun
hey eagle, don't you know that their all watchin' you
if you burn your wings then so does everyone

Now the bears will sleep while the bulls just run the market
telling us to always ask for more
a bull can be an ass to their whole country
and we'll eat their shit as it falls on the floor

I'm a home grown traveler
from Bangkok and to Rjúpnavellir
when I get up and leave
I never seem to mind
but I never leave my home behind

I'm rather fascinated by people's eyelids
they show me what they let themselves see
I've seen em' wide as canyons and tight like narrow streets
I wish I could see more that could see me

But whenever I see someone in my family
whether face to face, or even through some screen
and they tell me that I'm loved so unconditionally
I see home's the only place I've ever been

I'm a home grown traveler
from Bangkok and to Rjúpnavellir
when I get up and leave
I never seem to mind
but I never leave my home behind
