Among Other Things

Green is a color I've seen
My mama wear, among other things
And lately I've felt the world so bleak
There's not a lot here for me
There's not a lot here for me

It's a funny place, I've been thinking
Maybe someday soon I'll start falling
Today I woke, but tomorrow I'll sleep
Only to find someplace that I've not been
For in my dreams, the road's less broken

Well, I can't believe what's become of me
Was it just yesterday that I felt so free?
Now all I feel is a pain so deep
But it's for another, and it's not for me
It's for another, and it's not for me

Now it's all just one big tricky thing
And I'm not sure where it starts or ends
There's a thousand ways that it could have gone
So what's the use of right or wrong?
Sometimes I think that I should have known

How'd I end up in this selfish town?
Bet you didn't think I'd stick around
Here the people smoke and the talk's so cheap, mm
And over there, no one's listening
Over there, there's no one listening
