Once I was a speck of dust
That travelled on a greyhound bus to town
Watched the road black and alone
A porch light on at every home I'd see
Why am I always looking down
Somewhere between Toronto and Austin I get off at the wrong stop
Spent the night in a diner fighting off the urge to start a brand new life
Why am I always inside out
Caught in the corners of the crowd
Saying I love you say it loud
Wheels spin on the ground to another town
So the waitress wants to sit with me and take a break
I ask her why she stayed in this small town
She said in this world you never can see everything
So might as well see one thing through true eyes
Why am I always inside out
Caught in the corners of the crowd
