Not north enough
Born the son of love
Too young to ever know the Empire State
Then through enduring winds in foreign lands
Fumbled through my words for something more to say
Not big enough
And always in the way
Not too little to escape
So I found a way with pencils on a page
To make sense of the world til I found my faith
It was enough
Was not wise enough
Someone always trips you up
By now you'd think I'd learn a different way
No holy thoughts, when I spilled the cup
I'm well aware of the need for grace
I found a place
Where one can disappear
See I've never really been from anywhere
They stay behind. Heart and mind
There’s always room to roam and there’s always room
Just enough
Was not man enough
For a Southern town
These angels sweetly guide me through the pain
Now the sun comes up as it always does
But I’ve never known for warmth to feel this way
Now I can’t explain
Another shot at love
It’s appeasing no one knows me in this place
What I couldn’t grasp til I’d given up
That’s why I hold on so tight when I hold your gaze
