Somewhere Down There Lyrics by Matthew Connor

Farewell Motel

2014

[Verse 1]
The stars won’t shine on me tonight
The morning just won’t help me to see
I’m parked up here at the top of the hill
I got no place else to be
Down below is the train, hear her sad refrain
As she sings across the land
I, I don’t know who I am
Somewhere down there is a little red house
It silently is buried in snow
There’s a man who is walking there down
Down a street I used to know

[Chorus]
And up here is just the trees and the winter-white breeze
The train is just a lady in blue
I, I don’t know what to do
‘Cause I used to know just who I was
Back when I loved you
On second thought, well, maybe not
Though I never, I never needed to

[Verse 2]
‘Cause I have lived my life from who I’m not
That used to work just fine for me
I’m not my mother, I’m not my father
At least I try not to be

[Chorus]
Then one day I woke up and found that wasn’t enough
Though I’m not, it ain’t worth a damn
‘Cause I, I don’t know who I am
I used to know just who I was
Back when I loved you
On second thought, well, maybe not
Though I never, never needed to

[Verse 3]
‘Cause everywhere I used to go
All I saw was open doors
And every time I turned around
There would be one more

[Chorus]
Yes, but now it seems that they all close in
And every night I hear one more slam
‘Cause I, I don’t know who I am
Oh, I, I don’t know who I am
