Somewhere Else - Kathleen Edwards

I used to look for you out in the daylight

I took highways and sidestreets and back lanes

Slept under open skies

Life can be cruel

Life can be sweet if I want it to be

This town that I once called home

I just can’t hold on to

It’s got bus stops and strip malls and people

I would never even talk to

She said life can be cruel

But life is so sweet 'cause I let it be

Everybody out here

They wanna live somewhere else

I wish I could find a place

and stay there by myself

Bit by bit I swear I think I’m losing

All this city’s confidence
