lyrics

O Baloo take me home
Help me ditch the herd, take me where the people aren’t
drag me on an all night drive north on I-5
to some complacent and boring town in Southern Oregon where the hills stay green
and some nice old lady who believes in god makes me a cup of tea
let’s me stay in a mobile home on her property
where I sit and read outside
retrain my brain to focus on one thing at a time
ya…

O Baloo take me home
Let’s just ditch the tour and drive down to Mexico
no one would care nearly as much as I’d be relieved
to finally be anonymous and alone
Carry me back to Ventucky, far from this show
why do i feel so ashamed doing what I love?
Maybe I’ve grown out of it is all I can think of
I used to care about something
The community that once was my everything is now
ironically, the source of my anxiety somehow
Not bummed I just don’t know how to feel
Cause if this isn’t me well then who am I?
I’ve had this identity for such a long time
I’m a self-sabateur who doesn’t know when to quit
cause I’d be nobody if I didn’t have this.

O Baloo take me home
Let me contemplate this in my own safe space
where I grease up my wheels and recalibrate
Live with a cat and an angel
in a sleepy little beach town where my phone doesn’t work.
