What They Say - Arlington

Some fifteen years I was broken down

Yet to make a name

I bought some land by the oceanside

And that was where I stayed

White sand I held in my beaten palms

And I lost my discretion

Success it came

If there was more that I… more I could take

So how far beyond these lines

Was I supposed to stay?

Out here the voices yeah

They’re calling me today

I hear the voices calling me away

And I’m afraid of what they say…

Once in awhile I was spread too thin

And I lost what never was

Dead in a sense, and I hit my boy

When it brought out my flaws

How far beyond these lines

Was I supposed to stay?

Out here the voices yeah

They’re calling me today

I hear the voices calling me away

And I’m afraid of what they say…

How far beyond these lines

Was I supposed to stay?

Out here the voices yeah

They’re calling me today

I hear the voices calling me away

And I’m afraid of what they say…
