Far Away from Home

from home demos by Jimi Durso

about

The original demo I recorded for Matt Baranello to hear. We've since re-done this song w/ Coincidence Machine, and I've performed it w/ Matt Klein (and I think w/ Piltdown Man), but these are it's humble beginnings. I was listening to a lot of Bob Dylan when I wrote this one, and I think it shows.
Twang!

lyrics

Walking down the same old streets
Sidewalks too familiar to your feet
And it’s the same people that you meet
How’d you get so far away from home?

The same places every night
The same sounds and smells and sights
And it’s still the same old fight
Still so far away from home

The clothes that fit you too well
The four walls that make your cell
Make it very clear you fell
Fell so far away from home

In this neighborhood there’s nothing new
And your neighbors see the same old you
Just another person who
Ended up so far away from home
