I Will Belong - Max McNown

I belong I belong here I belong I belong I've been doing the most Out of breath just to show That I deserve to be here, too What I'm growin' to know Is I've always been home There's nothing more for me to prove I belong I belong here I belong I belong We all got faulty tapes Looping doubts, looping pain Dusty heirlooms we don't need But we got what it takes For the cycle to break Revolution lives in me I belong (I belong) I belong here I belong (I belong) I belong No matter where we go, go, go No matter where we've been before Don't have to feel alone We're all finding our way home (We belong) We belong to each other I belong (No matter where I go) I belong here (No matter where I've been) I belong (I'm) home, I belong (No matter where I go) I belong No matter where I've been, I belong here No, I'm not alone, I belong I'm home, I belong

'Cause I don't belong here 'Cause I don't belong here 'Cause I don't belong here Those days, it was all I wanted Nowadays, it feels all the same Used to stare at my bedroom ceiling Wishing everything could change Now it's hard when you're always searching For the life that you left behind Time disappears, year after year How the hell did I get here? 'Cause I feel so far away Minutes turn to hours and the hours into days I gave up everything You don't know what you got until you throw it all away 'Cause I don't belong here, I don't belong here, I don't belong, I don't belong I don't belong here, I don't belong here, I don't belong Looking back on the past, all the time I wasted Running from everyone that tells me that I'm fading out Must be mistaken 'cause I, I, I don't feel anything You know I got this brain, it drives me insane Somedays I feel I can't take the pain, I'm gone I can't explain it 'cause I, I, I don't need anything, no I feel so far away Minutes turn to hours and the hours into days I gave up everything You don't know what you got until you throw it all away 'Cause I don't belong here, I don't belong here, I don't belong, I don't belong I don't belong here, I don't belong here, I don't belong

Oh, look all around I get the feeling something is wrong Oh, I'm moving on My friends are leaving, my friends are gone You're walking fast You're losing You're leaving your path behind You're going Oh, what's on your mind? You're growing older, you're losing time Oh, it's so unkind There ain't nobody you can find You're walking fast You're losing You're leaving your path behind You're going Ah, when I'm here on my own I'm in a place I belong Ah, when I'm here on my own I'm in a place I belong

How can a world be crushed while another goes on How can good old friends pass away too young How can one door open as another stays closed How can good get beat when it felt so close I don't know how to feel about the Winter Because I'm told it gets warm after December There's a reason for everything so I've been told That the Lord's got a plan even when it gets cold But through this tear-stained face it's hard to see How the good God above is trying to use me I don't know how to feel about the Winter But I'm told it gets warm after December I'm not sure if I trust what I remember Sitting here alone freezing in November Sitting here alone freezing in November

I can see the sunlight Even at midnight Bouncing off the moon in your baby blues It's lighting up your eyes Making me realize All the stars in the sky got nothing on you Cuz I'm a lucky man Got myself a constellation A little piece of heaven in my arms And I've got to say amen I guess God sent me an Angel Cuz he knew I needed saving from the dark Lights up the room And my heart In every situation She's my blue eyed constellation I've seen some hard times Mountains I can't climb I prayed prayers I swear didn't make it through But from where I'm standing I finally understand it That the answer to my prayers has always been you And I'm a lucky man Got myself a constellation A little piece of heaven in my arms And I've got to say amen I guess God sent me an Angel Cuz he knew I needed saving from the dark Lights up the room And my heart In every situation She's my blue eyed constellation And I read about how sailors Use the stars to find direction That's the way your loving leads me home And I've heard about how God Can send an Angel for protection He knew I couldn't be left on my own So I'm a lucky man Got myself a constellation A little piece of heaven in my arms And I've got to say amen I guess God sent me an Angel Cuz he knew I needed saving from the dark Lights up the room And my heart In every situation She's my blue eyed constellation

There's empty in your eyes my love Seen it for a while now I know that you tried my love I'd keep you but I don't know how I could fight this losing fight but If you give up then so will I Sometimes a fire burns out Sometimes a well runs dry Sometimes a trail goes cold Deep in the dead of night Cuz I'm holding on With all of my might You're standing here Been gone a long time Left in the rain Left in the mud Love strong as iron's Still gonna rust Gray december skies my love Are crying on the cold ground It's really got the best of us You've seen the worst of me now Started in a blaze now we're flickering Talking to you now, are you listening? I'm looking for the why but I'm missing it Sometimes a fire burns out Sometimes a well runs dry Sometimes a trail goes cold Deep in the dead of night Cuz I'm holding on With all of my might You're standing here Been gone a long time Left in the rain Left in the mud Love strong as iron's Still gonna rust Sometimes a fire burns out Sometimes a well runs dry Sometimes a trail goes cold Deep in the dead of night I've been holding on With all of my might You're standing here Been gone a long time Left in the rain Left in the mud Love strong as iron's Still gonna rust

Bury me in my hometown Let the world close around my final days Finish out the race Where it started in a haze In the place that I was raised Lay me back down I flew around the country Been outside the USA They were right when they would say No place like home But I kept on testing limits Where I'd bend and where I'd break All the friends that I would make Then leave behind The only place I want to be at closing time Bury me in my hometown Let the world close around my final days Finish out the race Where it started in a haze In the place that I was raised Lay me back down Let me watch my final sunset In the land that I love most Holding all my loved ones close I'll walk on through So bury me in my hometown Let the world close around my final days

The Hollywood hills weren't made for someone like me The banks and the rivers were always more of my speed Time has passed slowly since the day that I ran away And the more that I picture your smile I see my mistake You and the Pines Are loving longing waiting Grinning with your arms out under Grey skies Masking all the pain inside and Knowing that you're desperate to be saved Loved every moment I spent just being with you But lonely took hold and I did what I'd never do Time has passed slowly since the day that I ran away And the more that I picture your face I see my mistake You and the Pines Are loving longing waiting Grinning with your arms out under Grey skies Masking all the pain inside and Knowing that you're desperate to be saved Time has passed slowly since the day that I ran away And the more that I picture your smile I see my mistake
