Track Insight / Lyrics
Leaves crunch underfoot, my footsteps deep
Golden light casts long shadows steep
No kids in line, no laughter echoing
From Ferris wheel and rusty equipment
Fourteen, lost and free to roam
No small town's judgment, just my palm
The compass guides me through the gloom
Homeward bound, I'll find my way
My faded Polaroid in pocket's nest
Mom's smile and Dad's in distant rest
These streets my home, but not my past
The park a ghost town, now dark and vast
Fourteen, lost and free to roam
No small town's judgment, just my palm
The compass guides me through the gloom
Homeward bound, I'll find my way
Tiny keychain compass, my journey's heart
A path of light in darkest of every part
Autumn leaves fall, secrets are whispered
Moments fade, like ephemeral mirth
Fourteen, lost and free to roam
No small town's judgment, just my palm
The compass guides me through the cold
Homeward bound, to where I belong
On homeward footsteps, headed out alone
The compass lights my way, a silver glow
I'll find solace in the urban hum
Fourteen, lost, and yet so free to come
