Foreign Kid

The breaths feel different by the miles, brother
Please don't move till you're of age
Your heart will be scattered, one place will never make you feel again

It happened to me like it was destined to be, hard to swallow the thought of accepting
My fate, that i've grown to hate

At the age of 8 i discovered i'll never be home again
Parts of my world scattered all over the place, fulfillment isn't a feeling i know well
There will always be a part of me at sea my dear, don't take it personally

The sad truth of a foreign kid my friend, two homes i have no bed made in
I'll be sleeping in the damp tonight, i've been sleeping with dampened eyes for some time

My family are dear to me but they're all over the globe
I'll never have one set in stone home, so i'll create one, of my own
One of my own

Well it happened to me like it was destined to be, part of me will always be at sea
I'll be sleeping in the damp tonight, i've been sleeping with dampened eyes for some time
I've caught the upper hand a few times, my whole like

The breaths feel different by the miles, brother
Please don't move till you're of age
Your heart will the scattered, one place will never make you feel whole again
