lyrics

away from the city
down a county road
sign on the way in says,
"Feel Right At Home"

a quiet place
where nothing will change
and everybody knows
everybody's face

but the hometown heroes
are dying of thirst
oh, they're grinding their gears
getting out of first

late at night
you can hear them drive
but no one gets
out of here alive

two main drags
and a parking lot
a methadone clinic
and a coffee shop

people smile
way too wide
oh you can't subtract
what you can't divide

you can't protect your kids
from the world outside
when your local color
it's all white

now and then
you hate this neighborhood
and you'd Westminster
only if you could

now, quitting school
cause it's a waste of time
you never learned to add
so you multiply

and shaky jobs
that let you barely live
selling weed on The HIll
to some college kids

you end up a grease monkey
just like your dad
when culture to you
is a garbage bag

every night
you sit and ask yourself
why the face in the mirror
looks like someone else

why can't you be somebody else
why can't you live somewhere else
