Wish I Stayed

Why cant we speak another language, one we all agree on?
Why when men look outside, they see houses
Instead of the fields they grew from?
We are constantly uprooted from them
Making us tiresome and fearful
Can you get up right now and endeavor to freefall?

Cause you can fall if you want to
Its just a matter of how far
Youve treasured your hometown
Youve forgotten where you are
And it will stay with you until your minds been found
And it has been found wandering around

With that skipping rope, the trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
But we didnt give up hope
Its the simple ways of getting paid
The carelessness of running away but I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed

Patterns all arranged in my background
These pillars and forks keeping this country on form
Letters were all sent with no addresses, so that people cant discover
Were always undercover
Why do I always draw triangles instead of the words this paper so deserves?
Cause you see, I dont own my clothes but I own my mind
And its not what youve lost
But its what you find
With that skipping rope, the trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
But we didnt give up hope
Its the simple ways of getting paid
The carelessness of running away, no, I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed

Cause you can fall if you want to
Its just a matter of how far
Youve treasured your hometown
Youve forgotten where you are
And it will stay with you until your minds been found
And it has been found wandering around

With that skipping rope, the trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
But we didnt give up hope
Its the simple ways of getting paid
The carelessness of running away, I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed
