Pillar of Salt

Pillar of Salt
So long city lights
Now dark before midnight
So long, so soon, my home
But now I can't live there
Try not to cry
Or think too much on why
My mind's a pillar of salt
Now that I can't live there

I miss my home
I miss my home
If I can't go home,
Then where is my home?
Count the weeks go by
And thinking I might die
Time is both the window and the wall
But into I don't know where
I know I'm just passing though
One of my Father's many rooms
But my mind's the killer in the hall
And he waits for me there
Whispering, "you can go anywhere!"
"you can go anywhere!"
But if I can go anywhere,
Then I don't belong anywhere
Don't let them see
Just what this means to me
But bend like a willow beneath it all
And make me lighter than air
So long city lights
Now dark well before midnight
So long, so soon my home.
