Step out the front door like a ghost into the fog
Where no one notices the contrast of white on white
And in between the moon and you
The angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right

Well, I walk in the air between the rain
Through myself and back again
Where? I don′t know
Maria says she's dying
Through the door, I hear her crying
Why? I don′t know

'Round here,we always stand up straight
'Round here, something radiates

Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she′d like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
And she walks along the edge
Of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she′s walking on a wire in the circus

She parks her car outside of my house
And takes her clothes off
Says she's close to understanding Jesus
And she knows she′s more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous

′Round here, we're carving out our names
′Round here, we all look the same
'Round here, we talk just like lions
But we sacrifice like lambs
'Round here, she′s slipping through my hands

Woah oh oh
Sleeping children better run like the wind
Out of the lightning dream
Mama′s little baby better get herself in
Out of the lightning

She says it's only in my head

She says, shh, I know it′s only in my head
But the girl on the car in the parking lot
Says, Man, you should try to take a shot
Can't you see my walls are crumbling?

Then she looks up at the building
Says she′s thinking of jumping
She says she's tired of life
She must be tired of something

′Round here, she's always on my mind

'Round here, hey man, got lots of time
′Round here, we′re never sent to bed early
And nobody makes us wait
'Round here, we stay up very, very, very, very late
I, I can′t see nothin', nothin′ 'round here

You catch me if I′m fallin', you catch me if I'm fallin′
Will you catch me? ′Cause I'm fallin′ down on you
I said I'm under the gun, ′round here
I'm innocent, I′m under the gun, 'round here
And I can't see nothin′, nothin′ 'round here
