lyrics

Hot concrete, living in the jungle
where the puddles flood with toxic rain
Topsy-turvy people huddle in the shuttle
'cause they can't afford to board the train

I've seen enough city lights
and grizzly sights
to last me the rest of my life
I know how to make things right
I know exactly what I need

I just need a place to rest my head
And a chord to build a song around
I need a place to rest my head
And we're all good

I'm living for fun
I sing to the sun
I take it day by day until my decades are done
I just need a place to rest my head

Warp speeding morning evenings
more in keeping with the people that you meet around here
More reason for believing if you leave
you'll see the perfect picture crystal clear

I've seen enough city lights
And grizzly sights
To last me a lifetime
I know how to make things right
I know exactly what I need

I just need a place to rest my head
And a chord to build a song around
I need a place to rest my head
And we're all good

I'm living for fun
I sing to the sun
I take it day by day until my decades are done
I just need a place to rest my head

No I don't wanna share a building with my neighbor,
no offense, I think you're kinda neat,
But I've been looking for a living out in nature,
For now I roam the streets,

I just need a place to rest my head
And a chord to build a song around
I need a place to rest my head
And we're all good

I'm living for fun
I sing to the sun
I take life day by day 'til my decades are done
I just need a place to rest my head

I just need a place to rest my head

I'm re-reading homestuck again, like a sane person, and just went on a spiral wailing to myself (lovingly) about all the beautiful art that came out of this fandom in its prime, some of which is just as integral to my love of this ridiculous webcomic as the thing itself. Haven't bit the bullet to buy the OSTs on bandcamp yet but this album deserves it. I'm very normal about things I loved when I was 14 and continue to love, I promise big suit david byrne
