Unfamiliar Places

I see a row of
sleeping dogs,
I see a poster
of myself.
Memorize the
path I took,
Waiting for sunrise to
Take me home.

I think of you in unfamiliar places
Making you mind up for yourself.

Don't be scared of the life you're making.
Don't be scared on your own.
Don't be scared of the life you're making.
Making decisions on your own.

Your serious face
In a farce of no-one's making,
Trying not to laugh out loud.
I can't imagine you on the plane
Interacting with other people,
Taking advantage of the bar.

Don't be scared of the life you're making.
Don't be scared on your own.
Don't be scared of the life you're making.
Making decisions on your own.

Moral pins and needles;
I think of thieves escaping.
Dark curls and dead eyes
In a doorway; a dead spot.
I think of you in unfamiliar places
Making your mind up for myself.

Let other care when I'm careless;
I've got a taste for something special.
Let others care when I am careless;
A useless scramble for protection.

I think of you
In unfamiliar places
