August Ponthier

Everywhere Isn't Texas
Cat had my tongue
And put me in a choke hold
Forever young
Only speak when you are so told
For there's elders here
And they're looking down
And you can't see beyond the
Trees over town

They prod and poke
And make me an example
What a joke
To say I was a scandal
They'll say it's just a friendly fire
But then they'll run me out till I'm tired

Everywhere isn't Texas
It's the only place you know
But that don't make it home
Everywhere isn't Texas
And you don't have to stay in this state, alone
And I know that it sounds reckless
But you don't have to stay in Texas

In the Lone Star State
You could find a way to fake it
When you're blooming late
Seems there's no hope to escape it

I've was dressing up as someone else
So I can shed the skin that weighed me down

Woah, woah

Everywhere isn't Texas
It's the only place you know
But that don't make it home
Everywhere isn't Texas
You don't have to stay in this state, alone
And I know that it sounds reckless
But you don't have to stay in Texas
