Gone to See the World - The Koffin Kats

The doorway holds a pile of letters

The weeds in the yard grow oh so high

The clocks in the house have all stopped ticking

But the beat of my heart grows stronger with each stride

A guitar hangs loosely from my shoulders

Old boots on my feet with newspaper inside

An eye on the sky to where the sun sets at night

I’ll follow it to the edge and beyond

And if you know me…

I’ve gone to see the world

And give it the last that I have left

It’s not for anyone to understand

But out on the stage any night could be my last

I’ve gone to see the world

And give it the last that I have left

It’s not for anyone to understand

But out on the stage any night could be my last

bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum…
