about
Being lost and wanting to find home.
lyrics
Ruby Slippers (cc.tran)
Ruby slippers on my feet
They can’t seem to take me home
How’d I end up so deep?
To feel so alone?
Every time I seem to walk
The further I get behind
Every time I seem to run
I’m running out of time
Chorus 1
Am I buried beneath a house
On the yellow brick road?
Did someone write my fate
And I wasn’t told?
I’m not ready to be dead yet
Still looking out for home.
I wish it were as easy
As the click clack of my heels
That the road was drawn out for me
Like a used textbook deal
Chorus 2
Am I walking on a winding
Winding road
Did someone take the street signs
And I wasn’t told
I don’t know anything yet
Just that I’m looking out for home.
Am I made of straw
Unwound, won’t ever get far
Do I have a mane
Flinch in the sight of - pain
I think I’m made of tin
Need a new heart to begin
This one’s battered and cold
Need a new one to find hope
Ruby slippers on my feet
Can you take me home?
