There's No Place in This World for Me - The Menzingers

The wind is moving But I am standing still A life of pages Waiting to be filled A heart that's hopeful A head that's full of dreams But this becoming Is harder than it seems Feels like I'm looking for a reason Roaming through the night to find My place in this world My place in this world Not a lot to lean on I need your light to help me find My place in this world My place in this world If there are millions Down on their knees Among the many Can you still hear me? Hear me asking Where do I belong? Is there a vision That I can call my own? Show me I'm looking for a reason Roaming through the night to find My place in this world My place in this world Not a lot to lean on I need your light to help me find My place in this world My place in this world Looking for a reason Roaming through the night to find My place in this world My place in this world Not a lot to lean on I need your light to help me find My place in this world My place in this world Looking for a reason Roaming through the night to find My place in this world My place in this world

No justice or justification We trust in God but can't trust in a nation The cusp of generations searching for a ventilation If 2020 vision is any indication of where we are Where we've been, where do we go American ain't legible My rights are being left behind In questing times they say invest in us Trying to rest my mind The press be pressed to find stories by my kind I suggest the climb Though many, many holler about justice reform But won't put dollars where the hustle is born You know our politicians, they like to perform Acting and singing that government song How they love America when you lovin' it wrong We the people are becoming reborn Cannot understand it I still believe that there's a place in this world For people just like me People out to find a way I still believe there's a place in this world A place for me and you Cannot understand it I still believe that there's a place in this world For people just like me People out to find a way I still believe there's a place in this world A place for me and you Elastic winner in America There's more content than there is character Truth is we're starring at a derringer All ways, there's a battle that's daring us We better cross and cross rivers A stolen soul and lost figures told by Doc Rivers Movement of the people, we take God with us And we create evil that will outlive us Delivered to this world with authority Never thought of myself as a minority Cordial invites to far left and alt-rights I'm from the Bob Marley party, everything will be alright You say "All life matters" but you Paying no mind when Black life shatters I know there's end the end of the struggle Revolution and love is like a couple Cannot understand it I still believe that there's a place in this world For people just like me People out to find a way I still believe there's a place in this world A place for me and you Cannot understand it I still believe that there's a place in this world For people just like me People out to find a way I still believe there's a place in this world A place for me and you

I don't know what I want So don't ask me 'Cause I'm still trying to figure it out Don't know what's down this road I'm just walking Trying to see through the rain coming down Even though I'm not the only one who feels the way I do I'm alone, on my own And that's all I know I'll be strong, I'll be wrong Oh, but life goes on Oh, I'm just a girl trying to find a place in this world Got the radio on, my old blue jeans And I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve Feeling lucky today, got the sunshine Could you tell me what more do I need And tomorrow's just a mystery, oh, yeah, but that's okay I'm alone, on my own And that's all I know I'll be strong, I'll be wrong Oh, but life goes on Oh, I'm just a girl trying to find a place in this world I'm alone, on my own And that's all I know I'll be strong, I'll be wrong Oh, but life goes on Oh, I'm alone, on my own And that's all I know 'Cause I'm just a girl trying to find a place in this world

Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays, 'Cause no matter how far away you roam When you pine for the sunshine Of a friendly face For the holidays, you can't beat Home, sweet home I met a man who lives in Tennessee And he was headin' for Pennsylvania And some home made pumpkin pie From Pennsylvania folks a travelin' down To Dixie's sunny shore From Atlantic to Pacific, man, The traffic is terrific And there's no place like home For the holidays, 'cause no matter How far away you roam If you want to be happy in a million ways For the holidays, you can't beat Home, sweet home I met a man who lives in Tennessee And he was headin' for Pennsylvania And some home made pumpkin pie From Pennsylvania folks a travelin' down To Dixie's sunny shore From Atlantic to Pacific, gee The traffic is terrific And there's no place like home For the holidays, 'cause no matter How far away you roam If you want to be happy in a million ways For the holidays, you can't beat Home, sweet home For the holidays, you can't beat Home sweet home

I never loved you but I tried to, And you were so ambiguous, We blamed the faulty wires, When we found our blood was pumped from stone. My memory is fading faster, I never bought a warranty, When I called and said I was leaving, You were one step ahead of me. Cold blankets, cold shoulders, Missed calls and apologies, But I met the other you, I met the other you, Cold blankets, cold shoulders, They've been there since I met you, At Tasker-Morris Station. So come back down to the middle where I've been, Settling into, with or without you. Come back down to the middle where I've been, Settling into, with or without you. But what do I know, But what do I know, But what do I know, Except our blood is pumped from stone.

I've memorized every single moment Every fleeting passage of time The way you'd laugh and dance in the kitchen After drinking too much cheap red wine I always rewind, the home movies in my mind Back to the times, first moving in with you I have so much to tell ya Please come back to Philadelphia This place ain't the same without you Anna You got a great big new promotion But now you travel so damn much It's like our studio apartment is just a place to keep your stuff And when you're away, I walk around in a haze Reminiscing the days, first moving in with you I have so much to tell ya Please come back to Philadelphia This place ain't the same without you Anna And oh, how the neighborhood's changed And all our friends keep asking for ya This place ain't the same without you Anna But I will wait, for you babe Take as long as you need to take I'll be fine on my own Counting down the days until you come home I have so much to tell ya Please come back to Philadelphia This place ain't the same without you Anna And oh, how the neighborhood's changed And all our friends keep asking for ya This place ain't the same without you Anna But I will wait, for you babe I have so much to tell ya I have so much to say Take as long as you need to take I have so much to tell ya I have so much to say Oh, Anna

Never thought I'd write about how I've fallen So insincere I might as well stab myself in the face Drag me kicking and screaming from this place These friends I've got you'd never think I would feel so alone Cry myself to wake, fall asleep for days Take a blood oath with the kitchen sink Worthless are a memory, real only skin deep Product of insomnia, to fall asleep I appreciate the genius in a metaphor In 5 years where will it get you, a self absorbing fool The catastrophic wheel side revery Am I so vane, to think you'd want to hear me? Sing of boundaries and borders And delinquent memories The catastrophic wheel side revery.
