Letra Be here Turnpike Troubadours

Be here

In the bitter honest light of day
(I really don't need to be here)
There ain’t too much left to say
(I really don't need to be here)
It's all a racket anyway
Just tell ’em what they wanna hear now
Tell 'em what they want to hear

The walls are painted cinderblock
(Oh, Lord, the road I'm on)
I make my bed and set my clock
(Oh, Lord, the road I'm on)
A little harder now to talk
And tell 'em what they wanna hear now
Tell 'em what they want to hear

And I'll b? back out, yes, I will
Spend my money and drink my fill
Long and ?mpty hours to kill
Well, ain't no changing me now
Ain’t no changing me

My books and clothes and soul, I’m packed
(Oh, the road that led me here)
My roommate tells me 'bout Iraq
(Oh, the road that led me here)
Patched him up when he came back
I guess I’ve had it easy
I guess I've had it easy

And I play along and force a smile
(Oh, the road that led me here)
But they saw me coming by a mile
(Oh, the road that led me here)
From ruling class to rank and file
The burden's all the same now
The burden's all the same

And I’ll be back out, yes, I will
Spend my money and drink my fill
Long and empty hours to kill
Ain't no changing me now
Ain't no changing me

At the risk of sounding cavalier
(Oh, Lord, the road I'm on)
My head and heart and conscience clear
(Oh, Lord, the road I'm on)
I pray deliverance from fear
The only thing I need now
The only thing I need

Well, had you looked it in the eye
(Oh, Lord, the road I'm on)
Oh, had they stated, not implied
(Oh, Lord, the road I'm on)
The choice is but you do or die
Nothing in your way now
Nothing in your way

I'll be leaving, yes, I will
Cyclone in my soul, be still
My heart is full enough to spill
Well, how did I get here now?
How did I get here?
