Lyrics for Song: Why Georgia
Lyrics for Album: Where The Light Is (Live in Los Angeles) [2008]
(Room For Squares album)
I am driving up 85 in the
Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
Just stuck inside the gloom
Four more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
And leave it all behind
PRE-CHORUS
Cause I wonder sometimes about the outcome
Of a still verdict-less life
CHORUS
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why Georgia, why?
I rent a room and I fill the spaces with
Wood in places to make it feel like home
But all I feel's alone
It might be a quarter life crisis
Or just the stirring in my soul
Either way,
PRE-CHORUS
I wonder sometimes about the outcome
Of a still verdict-less life
CHORUS
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why Georgia, why?
So what, so I've got a smile on
But it's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head
Don't believe me, don't believe me
When I say I've got it down
Everybody is just a stranger but
That's the danger in going my own way
I guess it's the price I have to pay
Still, "Everything happens for a reason"
Is no reason not to ask myself,
CHORUS
If I am living it right
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why, tell me why
Why, why, Georgia, why?
