4,1,2,3,5 anywhere but here

not a kiss from any of these here
not a song from anywhere close to here
not a dance from this city
not a love from this country

i know there's something more

the people here are warm
but their intentions are cold

i am slowly packing
my speed is the same
as the chains that are breaking

i do not know where i am going
but i know that it is far
across oceans
through vallies
and up a few trees
