about

What if the people who say, "I'm leaving the country!" found out that when they did they weren't wanted.

lyrics

We drive slow
Following directions we can't see
Showing doors we've no hope of opening

When we left home
We were filled with the zeal of new intent
Notes on Kant
And the dreams of lower rent

Now the cafes we attempt to dine in
Never want to let us in
They can see we are guilty of the sin
Of our birth

So we sleep on trains
Avoiding all the notice that we can
Hiding our passports in the shadows of our hands

And the telephone
Remains the only link to what we've left behind
Though there's not a single one of use who pines
For our old homes

We'll just move on
Live our lives out as perpetual vagabonds
Unremembered and finally unloved

And in the end we'll finally all admit
We were more than just a little bit afraid
The results of the choices that we made
Didn't mean a thing
