Kenny Bryan - Take My Time

I'm headed home away from this place
You can take my time but you can't have my faith
Windows down and I can feel the breeze
Gliding down from above the evergreens
You can tell me the way I feel is wrong
But I'm ok with my life and with the way things have gone
All my fears and doubts are knocking at my door
So I tell them I'm busy, we don't talk much anymore

This city's alive
I'm biking down backstreets, just taking my time
The roads wind on like an endless maze
And I get lost in a pleasant daze
These are pleasant days
Tonight I'll listen to Francis or maybe James
And I'll take my time heading back home
Life right now is sweeter than anything I've known

Walking round the place where we grew up
The world outside is hidden by the fence we hopped
Hands just barely touching, remembering the times
And there's sunset flickering in between the pines
But all the trees have grown too high
And my sun-starved grass has slowly begun to die
I need to get back to my basics, get back to my core
Say goodbye to my demons, we don't talk much anymore

You're in fortune's bed, I'm sleeping on the couch
And I'm ok with my life and with the way things turned out
I'm trying to forget what I think it is
And I'm trying to remember what I knew it was

You were so close and now you're gone
Everyone makes plans without asking me along
The walls around me seem to be getting close
As the cavity in my chest slowly grows
There are ghosts of my former self living in my heart
When I try to reach out they fly off into the dark
The ghosts made it halfway down I-26 before they burned out
And I'm ok with my life and with the way things turned out
