lyrics

Most folk are frightened of silence
Where I'm from
Their latest collection of words
Blethered and blurted
Like a bingo caller
Looking out to a dark sea of faces for a match

Most folk are frightened of talking
Where I'm from
I reckon they'd say just about anything
To avoid a conversation
It's amazing how much you can say
Without speaking at all

But I love silence
And I hate chatting
I'd like to talk
But no-one says anything to me
Where I'm from

Some folk are frightened of losing where they're from Where I'm from
They'd cut off their children to spite them
And all of their choices
Their affected voices
Successes and failures and big cars and houses

Some folk are frightened of changing
Where I'm from
Of sobering up long enough to regret
The decisions that were made for them
And the plans that were laid
Shut up, drink up and stay

But I don't get it
So I don't quite fit
I've tried to run
But there's no place for me
Except where I'm from
Except where I'm from

I'll accept where I'm from
Where I've been
Where I'm going
The place that will hold my shape
When I am done
Hold my shape when I am done
