This Place We Live

(Album: This Place We Live - 2023)

Lately I have found myself
Afraid of all the different kinds
Of wealth you see around this place
Will a part of me leave a trace?

I see that little golden boy
His hair so bright against the light
And through it all, through the sleepless nights
And all the things we're fighting for

We've heard it all before
Always wanting more
We're just looking for a place for us to grow
I'm just looking for a place for us to grow

And so the battle lines were drawn
This place we live where we were born
As the colours shift in the evening view
I will reconcile with what I thought I new

There is a ghost that lives in you
It's in your eyes, I've seen it too
What is it that we're trying to do?
It feels just like we're passing through

Well maybe that's all right
You were always in my sight
We're just looking for a place for us to grow
I'm just looking for a place for us to grow
To grow, grow, grow, grow

Maybe I held on too tight
Trying to keep us in the fight
Maybe it will be all right
Maybe it will be all right

We've heard it all before
Always wanting more
We're just looking for a place for us to grow
I'm just looking for a place for us to grow
