Where I Belong

Motion City Soundtrack · Even If It Kills Me [2007]

Hello there, how ya doin'?

I've got all these thoughts just floating through my brain.

They bump and they collide,

And cause a flurry of confusion and it's gettin' on my nerves.



I try to hold myself together,

Fighting off this mental weather, when I can. (Sometimes I do.)

But this shit storm's never-ending,

And the atmospheric pressure's calling for rain.



This is what I've got going on.

This is where I belong tonight.



It's chaos in the courthouse,

And the left side's all upset,

Because the right side wants a summer home and knows we can't afford it.

I try to mediate between this constant tug-of-war machine,

But wind up in a never-ending game of telephone.

There's so much going on,

And I just need seven minutes to calm myself back down.



Now I forgot where I was.

Was it me we were talking about?

This is what I feared from the start.

I keep falling apart!



What's going on, is this where I belong tonight?

(What's going on tonight?)

What's going on, is this where I belong tonight?

(What's going on tonight?)



I can't stand the thought of losing sentences and every island of words.

I can't stand the thought of losing everything I ever thought that I knew.



This is where I run out of words that describe how I'm so damn hurt.

This is where I fumble and fold and take what I'm told.



What's going on, is this where I belong tonight?

(What's going on tonight?)

What's going on, is this where I belong tonight?

(What's going on tonight?)



I can't stand the thought of losing sentences and every island of words.

I can't stand the thought of losing everything I ever thought that I knew.
