Ghosts Have No Jurisdiction Here (Live Session) Lyrics by Penelope Tree

Moshhh Sessions

2017

[Verse 1]
Traffics building up and I can barely see the headlights
Lighting the way up'down the A45
I haven't been home in weeks so it all seems nostalgic to me
And when I get there you'll come running out
With your arms open wide say it's good to have me back
Ignoring the fact that it took something pretty miserable
For me to spend the gas money to get there
You don't question, don't probe
Don't ask why I came back alone
[Bridge]
I still send cash back in an envelope
And love back in X's and O's
I feel pretty proud somehow you don't ask what you already know
[Verse 2]
And I'll catch up on all the local talk
All the lives that are harder than mine
But when you tell me about that old school friend
You don't see the tears in my eyes
[Chorus]
'Cus I'm not one for giving up
Though the south coast drives me insane
I kinda feel calm for a second
Then my thoughts just all appertain
Realize I'm not where I want to be
I'm miles from familiar skies
I'm not really one for just giving up
Or settling for just getting by
[Verse 2]
I hear you crying in another room
'cus you know that I'll be gone in the morning
It's okay mom, it's alright
[Bridge]
I still send love back in an envelope
And you can still iron my clothes
I'll call once a week, you'll just repeat
The stories I already know
I'm just a kid overboard
But a man Overwhelmed
I'm just a kid overboard
But a man Overwhelmed
I'm just a kid overboard
But a man Overwhelmed
I'm just a kid overboard
Oh I'm just a kid
[Chorus]
But I'm not one for giving up
'cus there's got to be more for me here
As my friends reach in to draw their blood
I'll lend them a listening ear
I will drive southward at 4am
To make sure they know that I'm here
I'll let you in on a secret
I'm always here
